Hi,
 
I’m trying to set up a private family web site for genealogy, and want to set 
up Apache Authorization access control for this site, and once the user has 
logged in has access to the entire site.  I’ve been reading the info at 
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/howto/auth.html to learn how to do this.  I’m 
just planning on passing out the same username and password to all family 
members and allow everyone in the family to use the same username and password, 
to keep things simple.  The server is running Centos 5.1.
 
The first problem I am running into – I’m trying to use the htpasswd utility 
that came with Apache 2.2 to create a password file.  The default location 
according to above URL is in /usr/local/apache2/bin/htpasswd but apparently 
it’s not located there in my install.  
 
I tried creating a password file by executing htpasswd -c /passwd/passwords 
famsite but apparently htpasswd is not in my path, I’m getting the “cannot 
create file /passwd/passwords famsite” error.
 
Anyone know where the default location of htpasswd is on a centos 5.1 install?  
Or how to generate a password file on a centos 5.1 install?
