MySQL Curses interface

[John G. Heim]

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/
