I wouldn't really recommend calling htdigest or htpasswd from a CGI script, as you appear to be doing. You should write a script that manipulates the password file directly. There is some guidance here: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/trunk/misc/password_encryptions.html#digest Joshua. --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
