NAME

       suexec - Switch user before executing external programs

SYNOPSIS

       suexec -V

SUMMARY

       suexec  is used by the Apache HTTP Server to switch to another user before executing CGI programs. In order to achieve this, it must run as
       root. Since the HTTP daemon normally doesn't run as root, the suexec executable needs the setuid bit set and must  be  owned  by  root.	It
       should never be writable for any other person than root.

       For   further  information  about  the  concepts  and  and  the	security  model  of  suexec  please  refer  to	the  suexec  documentation
       (http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/suexec.html).

OPTIONS

       -V     If you are root, this option displays the compile options of suexec. For security reasons all configuration options  are	changeable
	      only at compile time.

NAME

       htdigest - manage user files for digest authentication

SYNOPSIS

       htdigest [ -c ] passwdfile realm username

SUMMARY

       htdigest  is  used to create and update the flat-files used to store usernames, realm and password for digest authentication of HTTP users.
       Resources available from the Apache HTTP server can be restricted to just the users listed in the files created by htdigest.

       This manual page only lists the command line arguments. For details of the directives necessary to configure digest authentication in httpd
       see the Apache manual, which is part of the Apache distribution or can be found at http://httpd.apache.org/.

OPTIONS

       -c     Create the passwdfile. If passwdfile already exists, it is deleted first.

       passwdfile
              Name  of the file to contain the username, realm and password. If -c is given, this file is created if it does not already exist, or
              deleted and recreated if it does exist.

       realm  The realm name to which the user name belongs. See http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2617#section-3.2.1 for more details.

       username
              The user name to create or update in passwdfile. If username does not exist is this file, an entry is added. If it does  exist,  the
              password is changed.

SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS

       This program is not safe as a setuid executable. Do not make it setuid.
