Well I finally installed phpMyAdmin. I have been using my shell all along and decided I would set it up so I did. Works like a dream, very easy to install... Very nice.. I am glad I did as I went to check user privlages and found that there were 2 users that I didnt know about

User Password
------- --------------
Any None
Any None

So I got those outta there....

Anyways I need to password protect this so I was making an .htaccess file and it dont work... Can someone look at this and tell me what I am doing wrong.

Ok I cd to the phpMyAdmin directory
pico .htaccess

Then add

AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile .htpasswd
AuthName phpMyAdmin
require user euclid

Then Save and close...

I then make the .htpasswd file, So i type

htpasswd -c .htpasswd euclid <enter>
mypassword <enter>
mypassword <enter>

I then open browser to directory and it comes right up .. No PW prompt.... Can someone help
