Description Remi Collet 2007-03-08 07:12:30 UTC 
Doing a lot of support, i notice that a lot of users don't find phpMyAdmin
because of the uppercase used in the name.

Providing phpmyadmin is really simple and solve the issue.

You could also add a second Alias in the /etc/httpd/conf.d/phpMyAdmin.conf

Alias /phpMyAdmin /usr/share/phpMyAdmin
Alias /phpmyadmin /usr/share/phpMyAdmin

In the /etc/phpMyAdmin/config.inc.php, all default values can be ommited.

Having a non world readable config file is also a better way for security as
this file can contains the password of the controluser.

Adding the change password option will be usefull.
$cfg['ShowChgPassword'] = TRUE;

Regards

Good suggestions, I'll get on them soon.
Comment 2 Robert Scheck 2007-12-09 15:36:00 UTC 
Setting

  $cfg['Servers'][$i]['ShowChgPassword'] = TRUE;

does not work - but it should, as this option can be used per server and not
only global. Thus I'm skipping this for now.
