Sorry about the dely in replying (your comment got buried in an avalanche of SPAM comments).
No, it is not necessary to do so. You only need to do that if you want an automatic login to the phpmyadmin console (that’s what the pmapass is for).
To be honest, this is not a terribly good article and I should rewrite it to use http://localhost/security/ which
(1) allows you to see the security status of your XAMPP setup and
(2) gives you a link to a page (http://localhost/security/xamppsecurity.php ) that allows you to configure passwords for the system, thus eliminating any need to manually edit any files.
Thanks for the question (and sorry about the delay in responding).

$cfg[‘Servers’][$i][‘controlpass’]=’pmapass’; as well?
