I didn't have encrypted passwords because this was only testing and I wanted to be able to check everything. I used "select encrypt(password) from ..." which is something I found in a post, don't remember where. > The easiest way to populate the database is probably to > create individual entries using htpasswd or htdigest > (depending on what method you use) and importing the values > to your SQL.

This was a test where I used plaintext data (for passwd too) but it got the UTF-8 charset setting when I didn't pay attention.. I changed all fields into ASCII. However this doesn't solve the problem. I created a new field where I store the encrypted version of the plaintext passwords: now it works..! Thanks alot for the module and your patience!
