    Authentication with more than one .htpasswd

    hi

    i am aware that there is an apache patch that would let you authenticate for a site from more than one .htpasswd, does anybody know where to find it?

    thanks in advance

    If you can't find it, you can do a quick and easy cron job

    */10 * * * * cat .htpasswd1 .htpasswd2 > .htpasswd3

    It will update .htpasswd3 with info from .htpasswd1 and .htpasswd2 every 10th minute.

        Why not use only one passfile and have all of the sites read it and all of the billers only update that one file?

          I've heard of that mod before too - but never used it. I had a peek around google, but could only find people asking the same question that you are.

          If you find it, post back - I'd like to toss it in my bookmarks

            this is actually a good suggestion, but i prefer keeping them separate in case the worst happens (you never know)
