     66== How to set up an htdigest password file ==
     67
     68If you have Apache available, you can use the htdigest command to generate the password file. Type 'htdigest' to get some usage instructions, or read [http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/programs/htdigest.html this page] from the Apache manual to get precise instructions.  You'll be prompted for a password to enter for each user that you create.  For the name of the password file, you can use whatever you like, but if you use something like 'users.htdigest' it will remind you what the file contains.  As a suggestion, put it in your <projectname>/conf folder along with the trac.ini file.
     69
     70For the 'realm' parameter for the --auth argument, you can just enter 'TracRealm' if you don't have or want to use a company name.
     71
     72Note that you can start tracd without the --auth argument, but if you click on the 'Login' link you will get no response (and the server will print out an error message).
