Hi,

What do you mean by 'start a tunneled connection on mysql' ?

Generally, "tunneled connections" refer to stunnel or ssh port
forwarding. In which case, you'd ssh from one machine to your mysql
server and use "local port forwarding". See the ssh man page.

Or are you just simply trying to run the mysql client from one machine
to the other? First check to make sure you can connect to the server
from the server using the mysql against localhost. You might also
sanity check your settings in /etc/mysql/my.cnf
