phpMyAdmin Install... burn out.

Hi WHT,

I have spent many hours today trying to install phpMyAdmin. I am no expert programmer so I'm going on my gut with some of the configuring...

Side note: Register.com does not make it easy to move a database from them.

Anyway... I think I have it configured ok now. I placed the destination URL for phpMyAdmin:

Code: 
['PmaAbsoluteUri'] = 'http://www.mydomain.com/phpMyAdmin-folder/'
I have entered my user:

HTML Code: 
cfg['Servers'][$i]['user']          = 'dbm.mydomain.com'
And my password:

HTML Code: 
cfg['Servers'][$i]['password']      = 'letmein2'
I am a bit confused as to what 'auth type' to use. Right now:

HTML Code: 
cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type']     = 'http'
That's what I have... I suppose I should call them (again) and find out which to use...

But I have tried all 3 versions... http, config, and cookie... none work.

I get to a password pop up window that says:

Connect to www.mydomain.com

phpMyAdmin running on localhost
And the asks for my user name and password... I think I'm using the 'user' above and the password... am I wrong? Again, I could probably call Register.com, but I've talked to the on a couple occassions about this and usually it's a run around. It's like pulling teeth; not an enjoyable experience, lol.

Are there any tips here you can give me... I've looked at about a dozen tuts out there.... I've browsed this forums several pages of phpMyAdmin questions and others... I've studied the docs.

I'm burned out, but I have to get this database moved.

Thanks for any input you can give me...
