[cobalt-users] .htaccess

["Daren Cotter" <darenc@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi everyone. I've got a client that has a password protected directory using
.htaccess. The problem is, this client has 250 users, and wants to have
complete control over adding/deleting/modifying users. I have attempted to
install a few such web-based utilities that claim to do just this, to no
avail. I attempted to write my own CGI script with the following code:

--------- CODE -----------
#!/usr/bin/perl

use CGI qw(param);

$username = param("username");
$password = param("password");

system("/usr/sbin/htpasswd -b
/home/sites/www.mnvac.org/web/employees2/.htpasswd $username $password");
---------- CODE ------------

to no avail. Does anyone know any way to accomplish this?

Thanks!
