I guess the easiest way is to overwrite .htpasswd in /var/webconf/www with an empty string like: > /var/webconf/www/.htpasswd Then a new login attempt from a terminal should trigger the part in .profile which wants to install new passwords. This is quite a chunk of shell code which I eliminated from my .profile because I hated it. Another way is to use pwcrypt to create a new user:password entry for .htpasswd gatekeeper# echo username:$(pwcrypt) > .htpasswd Enter the password to encrypt: foo gatekeeper# cat .htpasswd username:Cf6wAfwQPTnig cheers ET -- „Wer von seinem Tag nicht zwei Drittel für sich hat, ist ein Sklave.“ ―Friedrich Nietzsche |
