I am trying to solve this problem I had for a while, but can't find any useful info anywhere.

I am running/helping with several websites using the .htpasswd for user-access.

I recently got a huge ASCII-file with usernames/passwords, looking like this:

--- CUT ---
username1,password1
usernname2,password2
...
--- CUT ---

And this goes on for about 12Kb, so You can imagine, it's not a fun thing to type in to htpasswd. :-)

What I need is some sort of encryption-program for either Mac (OS7.1 or lower) or Win98 that I can just run this little text-file through, and get an complete encrypted (of the passwords only of course) version of it on "the other side".

I do not want a perl-script or any script I have to run on the UNIX-machine, since the only UNIX-machine I have telnet-access to doesn't have Perl installed (please don't ask me about this - it's a Swedish provider, and I've been trying to solve this... )

I am very happy for any help in this matter!

Thank You!
