Depending on this, the mechanism we use to transfer phpMyAdmin to
our web space will vary. We will need some specific information before starting
the installation:
The web server's name or address. Here, we will assume it is
www.mydomain.com.
Our web server's account information (username, password), which will be
used either for FTP or SFTP transfer, SSH login, or web control panel login.
The MySQL server's name or address. Often this is localhost, which means
it is located on the same machine as the web server. We will assume this to be
mysql.mydomain.com.
Our MySQL server's account information (username, password).

System Requirements
The up-to-date requirements for a specific phpMyAdmin version are always stated
in the accompanying Documentation.html. For phpMyAdmin 2.11, the minimum
PHP version required is PHP 4.1.0 with session support. Moreover, the web
server must have access to a MySQL server (version 3.23.32 or later)??”either
locally or on a remote machine. It is strongly recommended that the PHP mcrypt
extension be present for improved performance in cookie authentication
mode??”more on this later in the chapter. In fact, on a 64-bit server, this extension
is required.
On the browser side, cookie support must be activated, whatever authentication
mode we use.
