Allow PHPMyAdmin access on certain virtual hosts - Ubuntu and Nginx

[mrast]

Hi Francis,

Wow, this gets stranger......who have cracked it for me....but i have no
idea how or why it got there!

there were symlinks in website1.com and website3.com roots public
directories for phpmyadmin - symlinked to /usr/share/phpmyadmin.

I never noticed them though as they didnt appear as a folder when browsing
the public folder structure with an FTP program.

Only doing as ls on /website1.com/public did it show it.

Removed symlink to /usr/share/phpmyadmin in the 2 root folders and now i get
a 404 page if navigatng to /phpmyadmin.....Perfect! :-)

As you can probably tell im primarily a Windows admin and Linux knowledge is
limited, thanks to people like yourself though im learning!

PS - Index.php does exists in the public root folders - but the file belongs
to WordPress.

PPS - You say:

> if ($http_cookie ~* £PHPSESSID"){
>If that is a copy-paste of the config file, then it probably won't match
>some things that you would want it to.

Could you elaborate on this please if you have time?

Thankyou for your time and help Francis, its most appreciated.
