Accessing Phpmyadmin

[marco]

Hi there,

I did a search in the forums but found nothing, so here's my question:

is there a way to let a user access phpmyadmin without entering cpanel?

I need to let a colleague see and work on a certain db, but prefer not to give out the username and password for my cpanel account. Moreover, this way he'd get to see all of the other db's, while I just want to let him handle one.

Thanks!
Marco

It can be done.
with command line arguments.
built an application in vb,
providing shell(""); function
use mysql on local computer there you get access to remote server database.

then in vb u can predefine the code
example shell("mysql -u root -pYourApache2TriadRootPassword newDbName < db.dmp" ,0);
i am not sure about this 0(zero), its to hide what input is given . then you would be connected to your mysql server.

my idea runs around creating an exe application and deploying on any computer running mysql .

This exe suppose called xaurav.exe will have inbuilt commands. which i wrote above or similar(depends upon what you want).

So this way your friend cant watch the username password and can work over the specific database.

Note:This is very complex kind of applications, any bug may give him access to other databases.
