Under M$ Windows apache checks not crypted but plain text passwords. For example admin's password is "123" and password file must be admin:123 instead of admin:XrfmOmcNtqcAk for authType Basic.
So make *nix required OS or make it work under windows.

As i understood, users could log in with theyr names and passwords exactly as in drupal login form.
Or they must use new passwords from module's table?

I will check the windows support, but I will not store password in cleartext.

The modules duplicates your password into the htpasswd file. However, it cannot decrypt the password, it can only intercept change. Hence, it only update htpassword when you change your password or create an user.

Therefore installing on a running drupal site, requires users to change their password (even to the same password) to get the htpasswd file update.

Windows apache server require apache md5 digest, which is not a standard md5.

I will update as soon as I have found a php implementation of this algorythm.

In the meantime I'll mark this project as unix only.
