Hi, Does anyone know how to replicate the Linux crypt() function in R:Base?
I use htaccess and htpasswd combination for the purpose of authenticating users to my web server. I have been using a web script for interactively adding a new user and deleting a user. However, it dawned on me that if I can somehow create the encrypted passwords from R:Base, I can basically create the htpasswd file and automatically upload the current list to my server and save a lot of time and effort.
Any help would be appreciated. James Kim
