encrypting passwords

How do I encrypt a password such that the Apache server
will understand it?
I can't seem to find documentation discussing such things
as the seed used.

the htpasswd tool could be used to do that.  Its a support program
included in the distribution.  I assume that you are talking about a
.htpasswd file.
