Hello,

I’ve heard about PHPMyAdmin and I’m trying to get it to work. I’ll explain my situation:

I’m borrowing a server from my father, theres was already some stuff on this server. I have ‘access’ to this computer through a remote administrator program. I’ve installed the latest version of PHPMyAdmin (took the old 2.8 version’s config and copied it). Now I’m trying to get this to work but I don’t know how to. How do I access PHPMyAdmin from ‘outside’ (without the admin tool)? How do I even access it from within the admin tool for that matter…

Maq
