(Apache) .htpasswd Basic Authentication - Create User/Pass with Encrypted Password - beneberle

Method 1

The -c directive creates a file .htpass in the directory somepath/outside/of/root/ containing a username user1. The -b directive means you must supply the password password1 at the command line when running the command - not recommended.

Method 2

The -c directive will create a file .htpass in the directory /somepath/outside/of/root/ containing a username user1. When run, the command will prompt you to enter the password, which will be obscured - recommended.

The -c directive will create the file, but also overwrite an existing file of the same name, so be careful.

Method 3

To add or edit a user/pass to an existing .htpass file, leave -b and -c out. Youâ€™ll be prompted for the new password.

This is good for ensuring your domain is always either accessed with or without the www, which is important for SEO. It is also good if you have multiple domains that should resolve to the same site, and can redirect all requests to the main domain.
