Re: [PHP] .htpasswd encryption

It can really depend on your system. On mine, for instance, it uses regular crypt() with a 2 character salt So, you can generate a random 2 character string to pass as the salt argument in php, and create it that way. IF that is the method used by your system Wanna test it? Peek inside etc/pass
