Description Wendall Cada 2005-07-07 13:50:42 UTC

The following parameters are added to php.ini

eaccelerator.admin.name="yourusername"
eaccelerator.admin.password="yourpassword"

I think these should be commented out and have a small comment added about
reading the readme found here:
$ zless /usr/share/doc/eaccelerator-0.9.3/README.gz

Just adding the password will not actually give user access to the
administrative backend. You could also add instructions for running this command:
# php -q /usr/share/eaccelerator/eaccelerator_password.php

This command will give the user the opportunity to enter a username and password
and give the appropriate php.ini lines to enter with the hashed password.

Even replacing "yourpassword" with "hashedpassword" or something would be a
useful clue to people that just entering a password here will not work.
