Hey guys.  
I just installed phpMyAdmin like 2 days ago or something… and i would like to change the auth\_type to something else (i can’t log in from another computer if its on localhost _\__). Does anyone have some experience on using http (or even https wich would be great) or cookies as auth\_type? If so, please guide me… the manual that comes with the program doesn’t give a clear view of how its done.  
Thanks in advance!
