[jason@phpdev htdocs]$ /usr/local/apache/bin/htpasswd --help
Usage:
htpasswd [-cmdps] passwordfile username
htpasswd -b[cmdps] passwordfile username password
-c Create a new file.
-m Force MD5 encryption of the password.
-d Force CRYPT encryption of the password (default).
-p Do not encrypt the password (plaintext).
-s Force SHA encryption of the password.
-b Use the password from the command line rather than prompting for it.
Looks like you should be able to run htpasswd as a fire-and-forget
operation, just play with the flags.
