on modern web2py the password file should look like this password="pbkdf2(1000,20,sha512)$858c916eb3bad575$ea6a279d9d32f82f1dddc24aee153669204f05aa"
You should create a parameters_*.py on your machine using web2py (normally, it would create a parameters_8000.py file) and transfer it to your remote machine. there should be no problem on having a parameters_8000.py from your machine transferred to a parameters_443.py on your remote host.
