I have been trying this on and off for the last 5 years, and never got it to
work, even under Linux, where it always caused OOo to crash. Having said
that, I was doing so with the MyODBC driver and not the JDBC Connector. OOo
doesn't directly support SSH connections AFAIK, but I may be wrong there (I
couldn't get it to work with fish:// for example), and my knowledge of
forwarding ports in SSH tunnelling is more than limited, since I do most of
my SSH work at the console terminal.

I imagine that setting up a tunnel like that would require passing the tunnel
as a parameter to the JDBC Connector (since how else will the driver know
where to seek the connection), but I don't know how to do that.

It seems to be something different: using the same settings in
NeoOffice work well. The difference between NeoOffice and OpenOffice
is that OpenOffice uses JVM 1.5 and Neo uses 1.4.2. I tried to select
1.4.2 as JVM in the Extra->Options->Java menu, but that does not
stick, so I cannot confirm my suspicion that it has somehow to do with
an exception that is raised in 1.5 that is not raised in 1.4.2, which
causes OpenOffice to crash.
