[Phpmyadmin-devel] new auth

Hi, Looking at the stats for 2.2.1, there were 17300 downloads of a .php version and 3300 for a .php3 version. I presume that it means PHP4 is well deployed. I think we could *add* another auth mecanism for PHP4 servers: session-based. I use it in all my other LAMP-based projects (did not try it with WAMP) and my users have no problems. Instead of $cfgServers[1]['adv_auth'] we could have $cfgServers[1]['auth'] with the possible choices: 'config': the username/password are in the config file (old advanced=false) 'http' http authentication (old advanced=true) (still use stduser?) 'session' session-based, customized login panel, session id propagated by URL (still use stduser?) Marc
