I have got phpMyAdmin 2.2.6-rc1 installed on my RAQ4 and all users are users
on localhost, so you don't need to enter domains in the config file, unless
they are connecting from a remote server, ie, the site using the Mysql isn't
on your server.

Remember, the user name and password you give to users of Mysql shouldn't be
valid usernames etc for your server.

You can also have several Mysql user and pass pairs with grants on the same
database, so that a public web page only has read permission, but the web
admin can get full read/write/drop access WHY, without having to go back to
phpMyadmin everytime. I have perl scripts that use one user for adding to
the db and another user for public access, ie less rights.
