Let's say that I don't want to use the htpasswd command from the UNIX shell
to generate an encoded password -- how else can I create an

AFAIK it's an MD5 hash, nothing more complicated than that.

I think the last time I used basic authentication I just generated
passwords with crypt(). At that time, the hashes certainly weren't MD5
(I think they were only 13 characters), but based on the manual that
seems to be variable with the system anyway.

Andrew:
Yeah, that's what I found as well -- it wasn't a MD5.
So basically my question is "What is it?"
Cheers,
