username and password

[danny_s]

I have a username and a password stored in a mysql db, I don’t have a php page to change them
I tried to change them in the db using phpMyAdmin but this doesn’t seem to work.
Is my only option to write a php page that changes the values,
or do I need to log into the db by command line and change the user and password there instead of using phpMyAdmin?

U should be able to change them via the phpMyAdmin Panel...however, if u have stored the password encrypted then the only way to change it is to create a script which stores passwords via the encryption method u use...hope i did not confuse u...
