How can i /tools/pma protect

[ispcp]

Hi Guys

Could you tell me how can I to protect this path /tools/pma for another "Netuser" ?

Right now can everybody put http://myip/tools/pma on his Browser and can see a phpmyadmin Login site. And I ,because a one of my Phpmyadmin Logins is root, want something more to protect this.

I tried with .htacces but it doesn't work (I put this files on ..gui/tools/pma and nothings happened, .htaccess must working, another files are protected)

Or should I change a root user to another one (Is it possible anyway??)

I hope you can understand my bad english
I hope too for your help and any tipps.

Thanks for any answer

root user login via pma is a bad idea indeed...

htaccess will work wenn you add AllowOverride AuthConfig in the apache master.conf

Thanks rbtux,
so I'll be changing the root user and also the master.conf files.

Hope it's works
