Hi,

you might want to take a look at this one:

http://www.thewebmasters.net/php/Htpasswd.phtml

Works in both php3 and php4.

Give you functions for adding/deleting/listing/renaming users + much more,
in standard .htpaccess password files.
I use it myself on several sites, it works great.

You could also run something like:

system("htpasswd -b passwordilf $user $password"),,,basically get the shell
to
run a the htpasswd program supplied by apache. you might have to play around
with the permissions to do this, so the webserver can execute the htpasswd
binary.
