Better Phpmyadmin Security
Currently when you go to any site /phpmyadmin you are presented with the Phpmyadmin login page. Due to security concerns I have disabled phpmyadmin completely. This is to prevent automated attacks against phpmyadmin. Would it be possible to enable a session like url function similar to what cpanel uses to access phpmyadmin?
So that when you click the "open phpmyadmin" link instead of just bringing you to http://server.com/phpmyadmin you would have something far more secure such as http://server.com/2304909-09sdpofjkaslkj/phpmyadmin where 2304909-09sdpofjkaslkj would be a session variable that would be generated from vesta cp?
This would increase the over all security and prevent automatic attacks against the phpmyadmin pages as well as limiting the security risks that may be discovered in the phpmyadmin application.
