[KLUG Members] Connecting to MySQL

[Jon]

Thanks for the info.  I did get it to work.  I had not given passwords 
to the users that were accessing MySQL with an address other than 
localhost.  Seems to be working currently at least.

As for the above -- From what I read about this setting, is that you 
fill these in if your authenticating with "config".  (Although I did 
set the MySQL User as root)

$cfgServers[$i]['auth_type']     = 'http';    // Authentication method 
(config, http or cookie based)?
$cfgServers[$i]['user']          = 'root';      // MySQL user
$cfgServers[$i]['password']      = '';          // MySQL password (only 
needed  <----------------
                                                                      // 
with 'config' auth_type)                   <----------------

Otherwise, thanks for the advice and ideas.
