Password self service with htpasswd - possible?

[blandoon]

Are there any scripts or apps out there that will allow users to change their own passwords on a webserver using htpasswd? Is this even technically possible, or do I need to go to something like MySQL to make that happen?

are they changing the linux users password, or their website/htaccess password?

You can use:

net-www/mod_auth_mysql-3.0.0-r2

or

www-apache/mod_auth_cookie_mysql2

for this.

Yes, the users are changing their htaccess passwords only. They don't have actual Linux user accounts.

I figured I could do it with mysql authentication, but was hoping to avoid it as this is a box I don't have complete control over, and may not be able to install additional software on. I'm guessing it isn't possible with straight htpasswd, but just thought I'd check.
