Hello Henry, To decode the password is the wrong way, You have to build the passwort with the given login. Then you have to compare it with the htpasswd file. You could simple build a crypt(3) encrypted passsword with the external class from www.cryptix.com. There is a methode called crypt. You have the give it the salt from your allready encrypted password out of the htpasswd file (the first 2 Chars).
