Creating a users file

Ggr is using htpasswd files to store authentication data. Passwords are stored in encrypted form. To create such file type:

  1. Ensure you have htpasswd utility installed (e.g. from apache2-utils package on Ubuntu).

  2. Create a new users file…

    Terminal window
    htpasswd -bc /path/to/new.htpasswd username password

    … or update an existing one:

    Terminal window
    htpasswd -b /path/to/existing.htpasswd username password
