Re: Virtual Web Servers, MySQL and Users?
I'm not familiar with the patch that Stojan mentioned, I'm not dealing with nearly as many users as you are and I'm just using basic authentication, but my way of handling this was to hack into the config.inc.php file in the phpMyAdmin directory and set it up so that the $HTTP_SERVER_VARS["PHP_AUTH_USER"] $HTTP_SERVER_VARS["PHP_AUTH_PW"] are used to set the $cfgServers[3]['user'] and $cfgServers[3]['password']. I can't vouch for the (in)security of this method, but it worked for me. Hope that helps. eirik Stojan Rancic wrote: > > Hello Marc, > > > But I suspect that once we give the customers MySQL, they will want to > > have PHPMyAdmin as well.

Virtual Web Servers, MySQL and Users?
Hi, we would like to offer MySQL database access on our web server, making the LAMP setup complete. That machine is running about a hundred virtual web servers for about 70 clients, and the MySQL setup on the box is also being used for user authentication, so the database definetely contains valueable data that needs to be protected from the users. But I suspect that once we give the customers MySQL, they will want to have PHPMyAdmin as well. AFAIK, the PHPMyAdmin version from potato gives full access to the databases, allowing users to see data they aren't supposed to see. Am I mistaken here? Is there a later version of PHPMyAdmin that allows user rights to be restricted? How do other ISPs solve this issue that surely comes up everywhere? Greetings Marc -- -- !!
