 |
|
Hello all and congratulations to the dev crew!!
Anyways, I am having great difficulty securing my phpmyadmin page/s. I have followed all the tutorials here to the letter, editting the config with username and passwords, creating a new user and assigning access to that user only etc...
Can anyone give me any help please. |

3D Desktops UK, welcome to the forums.
What exactly is the problem? You didn't specify.
Are you getting errors? Page not found? What?
Have you visited TRUSTpunk's tutorials?

Apologies for that,
What I mean is that anyone can access the phpmyadmin dir, a friend has checked for me. I was expecting a browser login box as it is password protected. I am positive that all my settings are correct in the server console.
IE: installed to scripts/phpmyadmin
Virtual dir set to phpmyadmin
alias and user added.
Just doesn't seem to work. PS: I followed the tutorial you mention to install
Any pointers and hope this is clear -
Many thanks fo rthe prompt response |

You said you got alias and user added.
But, did you configure Access Control?
Go to:
Console > Server Configuration > Advanced > Access Control
Click Add...
Virtual Path: /phpmyadmin
Realm: Whatever you want
Order: Allow/Deny
Allow Access To:
Checkmark your name. |

I think I see the problem.
Above, you said "Virtual dir set to phpmyadmin".
It's supposed to be /phpmyadmin (with a slash). |

With most domain registrars, that's referred as masking or framing.
Check your domain manager page to see if they support it.
Or use an A Address record in your host records. |
