You could get around the security problem by configuring the web server to
listen only on the localhost address, 127.0.0.1. Then ssh to the server and
run lynx connecting to the localhost.
# lynx http://127.0.0.1/php-myadmin/
or somewhat easier:
# lynx http://localhost/php-myadmin/

Subject: Re: MySQL Curses interface
Thanks, but that won't help me. This would be running on a production
server at a remote location with ssh, so the only browser I could use
would be Lynx the cat or a similar text browser. Yes, I can make
phpmyadmin available remotely but that poses unnecessary security risks.
It would be impossible for me to run Orca on that server anyway as it
doesn't even have a sound card and it is impossible for me to access it
locally.

No, I don't know of a ncurses mysql interface. However, I would like to
report that phpMyAdmin now appears to work pretty well with Orca and
Firefox 3.

Hi all,
I'm looking for a means of working with MySQL databases via a curses
interface. I looked through Debian with all the keywords I could think
of but only found GUI clients. The problem with the regular MySQL
Monitor is that it's very hard to use unless you know SQL which I
definitely don't. I guess I'm looking for something like phpmyadmin or
mysql-admin but that doesn't require a web browser or a GUI. Do you
have any suggestions? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
