SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

Password that will cause internal authorization checks for RemoteUser to allow access.

The password must be encrypted, unless MV_NO_CRYPT is enabled.

DIRECTIVE TYPE AND DEFAULT VALUE

Catalog directive

EXAMPLES

Password bAWoVkuzphOX.

NOTES

The encrypted password is a standard Unix crypt, which you can obtain either using makepasswd --crypt or indirectly using htpasswd, or invoking perl -le'print crypt("mypasswd","AA")', where mypasswd is the desired password and AA are two random characters called the salt.

See MV_NO_CRYPT and [crypt] for more discussion. See crypt glossary entry for complete information on crypto algorithms used and ways to generate encrypted strings.
