I recognize this is an old thread, but I'm just now catching up on list
mail ...

Well, I'm not so sure there really very much of a risk--but you may not
agree, of course.

I just want to make sure you are aware that your myphpadmin access can
be restricted by ip in Apache config, and I believe you can run over
encrypted as well. So, not much of a risk, imho. It's what I had in mind
when I suggested this, that your Orca would be local.
