Re: [cobalt-developers] htpasswd

["[Can-Host Networks] Félix C.Courtemanche" <webmaster@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

you have to use it this way:
/usr/sbin/htpasswd -c /home/sites/homes/web/intranet/.htpasswd user

replace 'user' with the usenrame you wish to create apassword for.
you have to specify .htpasswd because you could decide to use another name
if you really wanted to ;)
