But there really isn't anything decent otherwise.<br /><br />And as it turns out, both Navicat and SQLyog run like a dream. Since both of these applications are absolutely fantastic pieces of software, I won't hesitate to recommend swallowing the WINE pill and giving <b>SQLyog</b> a try. <i>(Navicat is great but it's just too darn expensive!)</i>CreatorBrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08132078293890436058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4355584967795500738.post-9647561547278472282010-01-18T22:13:06.269+08:002010-01-18T22:13:06.269+08:00Nice article and screenshots.

Initializing Apache is fine for local phpMyAdmin database access, but I mostly remotely access databases. It's firewall spaghetti to have the simultaneous "localhost/remote site" scenario with Apache, just to run MyPhpAdmin. I use the MySQL Workbench.xbaskethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15624745058983288500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4355584967795500738.post-74671024203102378242009-11-09T21:59:46.159+08:002009-11-09T21:59:46.159+08:00HahaZachi, thanks for informing me.

It takes a lot of developer hours to release a native version for Linux. So companies like Navicat chose to port it using Wine.<BR/>As long as all the desired functions work with Wine, we shouldn't complain. <BR/><BR/>SQLyog was planning to come out with a native Linux client. You can check with them as well.<BR/> <BR/>Thanks for the comments. I would really appreciate if you could share any new native clients that you encounter in near future.Anojhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02266923349466748615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4355584967795500738.post-14928478918407970452008-06-20T17:23:00.000+08:002008-06-20T17:23:00.000+08:00Darn.I came because I was looking for something op...Darn.<BR/>I came because I was looking for something open source that could let me build and modify a MySQL database through a gui. SQL-Front is a great app for Windows, but on my Linux laptop, there doesn't seem to be a whole lot out there. Despite the article's initial claim that there are good Linux tools out there, two of the three you review still require WINE (Windows Emulation) to run. SQL-Front has a few small bugs yet, but once again, the Windows side of the coin seems to get all the good stuff.<BR/>If I had known that all the really smooth features in free software was in Windows, I probably would have just left Win2k on the laptop.<BR/>Pretty decent descriptions you give, but in the end, if you have to emulate Windows for what you want, then you probably should have been running Windows in the first place.<BR/>Guess I'll continue the long trudge through Google results to (hopefully) stumble on something comparable.CMackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08974513174829223753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4355584967795500738.post-83256614946289300602008-05-21T02:27:00.000+08:002008-05-21T02:27:00.000+08:00Yup, i missed out phpMyAdmin.
