clientside PHPMyAdmin?

[DJFuji]

So i'm a MS-SQL Server guy but i have to do some work on a LAMP system...and i want a GUI for my database but the client doesnt want to install phpmyadmin because of some security vulnerabilities he's worried about.

What i don't get is why can't I find a client-based application i can install on MY system which connects to the remote database? Like Toad for Oracle or Query Analyzer/Client Tools for SQL server? From what i understand, phpmyadmin is a web-based GUI that you install on the SERVER. Isn't there a client side tool for this?

I don't have a direct answer for you but what's wrong with installing a webserver and phpMyAdmin on your local machine?

 

[DJFuji]

because i dont want tons of overhead for what should be a simple way to use a GUI to access the db.

tfinch2, i'll look into that. That looks like exactly what i need.

I'm not a fan of web apps in any way but Apache isn't huge overhead, especially when compared to crap like Tomcat.

You wont be able to use the query browser unless you are at the terminal as mysql disables remote connections by default.
You can enable them: http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/...l-database-server.html but you will never be able to access it remotely otherwise.

I love using aqua data studio. It's funny you mention toad, they have a mysql app on their site as well.
