.htpasswd
.htpasswd is used to create and update the flat-files used to store usernames and password for basic authentication of Apache HTTP Server. The file name starts with a dot, because most Unix-like operating systems consider any file that begins with dot to be hidden.
The file consists of rows, each row corresponds to a pair of username and hashed password separated with the colon in between. The hash is typically MD5 with SHA1 as a common option.
Resources available from the Apache HTTP server can be restricted to just the users listed in the files created by htpasswd.
