The way I have it set up it asks for the user ID and password of the database that you want to connect to so there is no password protection on the directory itself. I tried also password protecting its directory but then I was unable to access it unless I made the user ID and password the same as the database so I figured what was the point. Also since I have multiple databases I didn't see a way to do this.
This is how I have it set.
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'http'; // Authentication method (config, http or cookie based)?
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['user'] = ''; // MySQL user
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['password'] = ''; // MySQL password (only needed
// with 'config' auth_type)
I did put it in a directory with a just about impossible name to guess.
