<strong>NAME</strong>
     htdigest - Create and update user authentication files

<strong>SYNOPSIS</strong>
     <strong>htdigest </strong>[ -<strong>c </strong>] <em>passwdfile realm username</em>

<strong>DESCRIPTION</strong>
     <strong>htdigest </strong>is used to create and update the flat-files used to
     store  usernames,  realm and password for digest authentica-
     tion of HTTP users.   Resources  available  from  the  <strong>httpd</strong>
     Apache web server can be restricted to just the users listed
     in the files created by <strong>htdigest.</strong>

     This manual page only lists the command line arguments.  For
     details  of  the  directives  necessary  to configure digest
     authentication in <strong>httpd </strong>see the Apache manual, which is part
     of   the   Apache   distribution   or   can   be   found  at
     http://www.apache.org/.

<strong>OPTIONS</strong>
     -c   Create the <em>passwdfile</em>. If <em>passwdfile </em>already exists, it
          is deleted first.

     <em>passwdfile</em>
          Name of the file to contain  the  username,  realm  and
          password.  If  -c is specified, this file is created if
          it does not already exist, or deleted and recreated  if
          it does exist.

     <em>realm</em>
          The realm name to which the user name belongs.

     <em>username</em>
          The user name to create or  update  in  <strong>passwdfile</strong>.  If
          <em>username  </em>does  not  exist  is  this  file, an entry is
          added. If it does exist, the password is changed.
