Hello people,I'm going crazy trying to get apache (v2.2.6 built Sep 23 2007---the built-in apache in Mac OS X 10.5) to recognize MD5 passwords made using something other than htpasswd -m [1]. The passwords are made using pwunconv on a redhat linux machine, FWIW.
When I look at the encrypted passwords from the other machine, I see xxx:$1$sssssss$zzz...which means that the passwords are encrypted using the non-apache version of md5, as far as I can tell.
If I make new passwords using htpasswd -m on either machine, they look like
xxx:$apr1$sssssss$zzz...which means they are made with the apache variant of md5, I think. My version of apache has no problem using passwords added to the bottom of the original file in this fashion.
My web server can read only those containing an $apr1$. It cannot interpret those with $1$. The web server on the linux machine supposedly can read the non-apache passwords, however. As far as I know, it is running version 2.2.1 of apache.
I know nothing about how the apache on the linux machine is configured or how it was built. I'm just trying to use the same files in my AuthUserFile directives, since I can that way use the same passwords as the main server without any mess or fuss.
Can anyone give a clue for what I should do to be able to read the non- standard encryptions?
