Hi,

The HtpasswordForm[1] recipe has been vastly updated (almost a rewrite
from scratch), and offers the following improvements:

Htgroup handling:

In order to follow the latest AuthUser[2] features, the recipe is able
now to handle Apache user group files, and therefore provides a
combined administration file editing form, with limited but effective
combined interactions such as "create a new user and put him in a
group in one operation".

Fixed a potential security flaw:

A flaw allowing admin level bypassing was still present in previous
versions of the recipe (before 20061016) and has been corrected.

Regards,
Dom
