Hi,
I would like to rephrase this part of Documentation.html: -----------------
If other people have telnet access to your server, it's not a good idea to store the MySQL password in clear text in your config.inc.php3 file. You should use phpMyAdmin's advanced authentification feature in this case. ------------------
Please look at this question:

and check/comment my answer.
Marc.
