php - phpMyAdmin - Did the Config files change? -

I have just installed phpMyAdmin on my new Fedora Core 10 dedicated server.

I have phpMyAdmin- 3.1.2-english.tar.gz. I removed it and put it in this folder / offline / FPMIadmin -3.1.2- in English and I created a symbolic link in the / var / www / html directory so that I can see it in this way.

When I point my browser to that URL, I am asked to login and I can only use the local host as a username and an empty password. So I thought I would change this by following some web tutorials which suggest changing these lines:

  $ cfg ['server'] [$ i] ['auth_type'] = 'Http'; $ Cfg ['server'] [$ i] ['user'] = 'USERNAME'; $ Cfg ['server'] [$ i] ['password'] = 'password';  

However, these lines are not even present in my config.inc.php !!! I have installed it before and I remember these files are there, but they are not.

I tried to add those lines and it did not make any difference.

Is phpMyAdmin their config files or have I installed it incorrectly ??

Thanks for any help!

Edit

I managed to remove that one and "yum install PhpMyAdmin" and the config file works fine here! :)

However, I'm still unable to use phpMyAdmin by using the password and username, while suggesting in config.inc.php. Does this mean that username and password are suggested config.inc.php with mysql server username and password?

setting

  $ cfg ['server'] [$ i ] ['Auth_type'] = 'config'; Instead of  

  $ cfg ['server'] [$ i] ['auth_type'] = 'http';  

Help?
