Description:
------------
Its often needed to generate an Apache password for authentication. At least on NetWare and Win32 its a nightmare to execute the htpasswd bin from Apache; and even on Linux it might not be possible due to safemode restrictions. Therefore I've created a patch for the Apache2 filter and handler module:
filter:
http://www.gknw.net/test/php_issues/apache2filter_php_functions.c.diff
handler:
http://www.gknw.net/test/php_issues/apache2handler_php_functions.c.diff-2
I have successfully tested this patch on NetWare platform;
and it should work on all other platforms too.
Here's a test script to verify the new function:
http://www.gknw.net/test/php_issues/tap_htpasswd.php
would be great if this could make it into next release.
Thanks!

Just found that the previous patches were slightly incomplete because the Apache headers for the prototypes were missing; have fixed that now, here are the new new patches:
apache2filter:
http://www.gknw.net/test/php_issues/ap2filter_php_functions.c.diff
apache2handler:
http://www.gknw.net/test/php_issues/ap2handler_php_functions.c.diff
Have now also successfully tested this on Win32 with the apache2handler module.
Here's a new working sample for testing:
