My webhost does not allow remote connections to the mysql server. The solution is creating a ssh tunnel that redirects the local port X to the remote port Y through it.
On windows i used putty to create the tunnel then plug mysql administrator on this end of it.

Ok... this is a dummy question, but how do i create a tunnel on linux?
