Now you have created the username, the
command shell provides you with the user name and an encrypted
password
Automatically using MD5 format.
fred:<encrypted user name here>.....$<encrypted
password here>
Copy the line from the command shell with the
encrypted part
Paste that line into the ".htpasswd"
file
Hint: If a username you want to keep already exists, paste the
new one (for "Fred") beneath the existing
username(s)
Paste that line into the ".htaccess"
file for the directory to which you want access to be granted
From here on, you can copy the ".htaccess"
file into any directories where you want the same permissions
to exist
