MySQL Server Administration
with phpMyAdmin

This chapter will discuss how a system administrator can use the phpMyAdmin
server management features for day-to-day user account maintenance, server
verification, and server protection. Non-administrators can also obtain server
information from phpMyAdmin.

Entering the Server View
The Server view can be accessed from the Home page by choosing one of the
following links:

The Privileges link is visible only if we are logged in as a privileged user. When in
the Server view, we see a menu to go to the other server-related sub-pages.
