Sometime you might get crazy for the authentication timeout while working with phpMyAdmin. By default the timeout value is set to 1800 seconds which is 30 minutes.

You can easily increase this limit by editing your config file for phpMyAdmin. Simply open the config file (config.inc.php) and add following config variable with increased/decreased value.
