Changing "the site password"

Certain directories on http://www.cagreens.org are protected by the file /w/cal/internal/.htaccess. It refers to a file /w/cal/internal/.htpasswd which you manipulate with the htpasswd command. These root shell incantations update the password for the gpca user ID.

cd /w/cal/cc/internal
ls -a
cp -p  .htpasswd  htpasswd2010
htpasswd  -b -c .htpasswd gpca <i>new password</i>
