With this generator it is possible to generate a Htpasswd. An user can enter his username and password. Based on the selection of the encryption method (Bcrypt, MD5, SHA-1, Crypt and Text ) the credentials are encrypted and can be copied and pasted into the own .htpasswd file. Once clicked on the generate button, the .htpasswd credentials are created. The .htpasswd credentials can be copied to the clipboard with the corresponding copy button.
The .htpasswd file contains one or more credentials needed for authorization when an user requests a web-page from a proxy server that has enabled htpasswd/htaccess protection (e.g. Apache httpd). It is usually just linked in the .htaccess file where the .htpasswd file is found.
