No, we expect Bill Gates to buy our software as soon as it is ported to ASP and supports MS-SQL and Access.

[Phpmyadmin-devel] 2.5.4 Schedule
by Rabus 24 Sep '03

24 Sep '03

Hi list, The current status of phpMyAdmin looks pretty stable to me, so what about 2.5.4-rc1 and QA_2_5_4 branch-out on Sunday? I think, we have merged some fixes that should find their way into a release version soon. :-) In this case, the schedule would look as follows: 2.5.4 branch point and RC1: 09/28 Final release (or RC2): 10/12 Alt. final release (if RC2): 10/26 Would this be OK for you? Regards, Alexander

RE: [Phpmyadmin-devel] WITH GRANT OPTION

The problem is that although those users may change a user's privileges, they are not automatically allowed to view the current privileges. This makes developing a GUI for this purpose really hard. We could use the conroluser to read the privileges the current user may alter, but this should not be the default behavior of phpMyAdmin. While revising server_privileges.php3, I thought about splitting it up into server_privileges.php3, db_privileges.php3, tbl_privileges.php3 and libraries/privileges_common.lib.php3. If I did so, I could try to find a way to merge this feature. Regards, Alexander

[Phpmyadmin-devel] WITH GRANT OPTION
by Marc Delisle 22 Sep '03

22 Sep '03

Hi, From the manual: "The WITH GRANT OPTION clause gives the user the ability to give to other users any privileges the user has at the specified privilege level. " I would be interesting if the Privileges pages could be used for normal users that have WITH GRANT OPTION. Marc

Not for cosmetic reasons: for security reasons! Let's imagin a small company network with two servers: server 1 and server 2, both running the MySQL server software. Server 1 is connected to the internet permanently. The MySQL database on server 1 sometimes has to be accessed from outside the network. This is why the sysadmin installed phpMyAdmin on server 1. The MySQL server on server 2 contains serious data and may not be accessible from the internet. Nevertheless, this database powers some php scripts running on server 1, so server 1 has to be able to connect to server 2's MySQL database. In this case, phpMyAdmin would be a security hole, if the arbitrary server mode wouldn't be configurable. In addition to this, an internet user would not only be able to access server 1 and 2, he would also be able to use the owner's bandwidth to access thousands of different servers all over the world.

[Phpmyadmin-devel] Compressed exports
by Michal Cihar 17 Sep '03

17 Sep '03

Hi all I just implemented workaround for exporting large compressed (gzip/bzip2) dumps. Created dumps may cause problems to some programs (but I didn't face any yet). So please test it and if you'll find any problems with created dumps $cfg['CompressOnFly'] should be FALSE as default. Your dump needs to be at least (memory_limit - 1.5M) * 2/3 big to activate new code. -- Regards Michal Cihar http://cihar.com

[Phpmyadmin-devel] Icons or texts as default
by Michal Cihar 15 Sep '03

15 Sep '03

Hi all from forum: --- %< --- I just upgraded to 2.5.3. I am thankful for the bug fixes, but I must say that I don't care for the icons for actions. Too cryptic. Especially if you haven't used phpMyAdmin before. (Although, I've been using it for a long time.) May I suggest that a mode that combines the icon with the text might be the best default setting for new users. Leave the terse cyptic icon only view for people who are very familiar with the program and want to conserve on screen real estate. --- %< --- I completely agree with that, just icons are IMHO not the best default... -- Regards Michal Cihar http://cihar.com
