Are there specific configurations that need to be set up in order to display the login mask in phpMyAdmin?

To display the login mask in phpMyAdmin, you need to ensure that the authentication type is set to "cookie" in the phpMyAdmin configuration file. This can be done by editing the config.inc.php file and setting the value of $cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] to 'cookie'. Once this configuration is set, the login mask will be displayed when accessing phpMyAdmin.

// config.inc.php
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'cookie';
