Re: [cobalt-users] Raq4 : phpMyAdmin 2.3.3 security



go into your config.inc.php file in the phpmyadmin directory


vi the file (or editor of your choice) and look for the following line

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'cookie'; // Authentication method (config, http or cookie based)?

If you set it to COOKIE then it will ask for the username/password. That's what i did for my servers, i placed the newest version in /home/phpMyAdmin, setup cookie authentication, and then set an alias so ANY domain on the server can get to it by using www.whateverdomainipick.net/phpMyAdmin

I just installed the 2.3.3 pkg on a newly restored server and when I go
to phpmyadmin it just takes me directly to the gui.  Before I had it
setup and it would ask you for the username and password.

Do I need to setup a .htaccess file?
