.Sh DESCRIPTION
.Nm
is a tool that creates Digest-MD5 hashes. These are used to perform HTTP Digest 
authentication. Storing these hashes is more secure than storing plain text 
passwords. An HA1 is an MD5 hash of the username, realm and password for the 
given user. 
.Pp
.Nm 
will prompt you for the information it needs to create an HA1 hash and then
output that hash on the console. You can use this tool in scripts to put hashes 
in your database. 
.Pp
When used in batch mode (by specifying the 
.Fl b
option) 
.Nm 
reads user information from it's input and outputs hashes for each user. Each input 
line should be in the following format:
.Pp
.Dl user:realm:password
.Pp
.Sh OPTIONS
The options are as follows:
.Bl -tag -width Fl
.It Fl b
Batch mode (described above).
.It Fl p

.Ar password 
to hash. When not specified on the command line 
.Nm 
will prompt you for it.
.It Fl r
The 
.Ar realm 
for the HA1 hash. When not specified you'll be prompted.
.It Fl s
When in batch mode output only the plain hashes. 
.It Fl u
