Apache::Htpasswd - Manage Unix crypt-style password file.

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    use Apache::Htpasswd;

    $foo = new Apache::Htpasswd("path-to-file");

    $foo = new Apache::Htpasswd({passwdFile => "path-to-file",
				 ReadOnly   => 1}
				);

"path-to-file" should be the path and name of the file containing
the login/password information.

	Apache::Htpasswd->new({passwdFile => "path-to-file",
			       ReadOnly   => 1,
			       UseMD5     => 1,
			     });

This is the prefered way to instantiate an object. The 'ReadOnly' param
is optional, and will open the file in read-only mode if used. The 'UseMD5'
is also optional: it will force MD5 password under Unix.

If you want to support plain un-encrypted passwords, then you need to set
the UsePlain option (this is NOT recommended, but might be necesary in some
situations)

=item error;

If a method returns an error, or a method fails, the error can
be retrieved by calling error()
