Help!
I used to know where an online source of access (through either a CGI or
PERL script) to an .htpasswd utility was. I don't have a unix box where
I can run .htpassword (durn it) easily and I want to generate some
.htaccess files to secure an area of my website for limited access.
This site I used to be able to find (can't find one now after an hour of
looking) was someplace you could go, type in a password, and get back
the results after crypt() had done its evil work. You just copied it to
your clipboard, pasted into the .htaccess file and voila.... security of
a sort.
So if anyone knows where a site like this is.... that'd be real keen if
they'd mail it to me.

BTW - To make a feeble OT attempt - shouldn't Jon be working on an
Infowar supplement for the GZGverse.... after all not all of the fights
will be "actual". Something tells me quite a few will be virtual, the
battleground will by cyberspace or the EM spectrum, and the weapons will
be disinformation, sensors, cloaks, computer programs, EMPs, etc.
