Thanks Matthias, Sarah and others. I'm going to be away from the office (and email) for a week, so I'll give this some more attention when I return. Perhaps there'll be some more input by then as well.

Hi Marty,

i was looking also for a solution some time ago. As far as i know, Revolution cannot 
create such passwords on without "external" help. Please anyone correct me, if 
i am wrong.

For a customer i created an app, which helps him to create and protect folders. 
The complete app creates/modifies/deletes the .htacess and the .htpasswd files 
for him.

This is how i solved the password creation:

1. I created  a php-file with the following content e.g:
______________
<?php
// set password
echo "Password created";
echo"<br>" ;
echo crypt($pass , 'sa');
//you can replaces ´sa´ with whatever 2 characters you want

?> _____________________________

This php file was put on the customers webserver.


2. the following lines call the php-script and passes the "real" text-password to the 
php, which then returns 2 lines. In the second line there is the encrypted password. To be sure, 
that the php was executed correctly, i check for "Password created" in line 1.

____________________________

put URL ("http://www.revolutionatwork.com/passwordcreate.php?pass="; & sPassword) into sOutput if line 1 of sOutput is "Password created" then put line 2 of sOutput into sEncryptedPassword _____________________________________________
