there several approachs of http authentication: basic authentication, digest access authentication, ntlm http authentication (any other ones)?

on other side there .htaccess & .htpasswd based authenticazion on apache web servers , analog variant .htpasswd on nginx.

i want understand: .htpasswd based authentication on apache , nginx actually. realtionship between , http basic authentication? "implementation" of concept? if yes, whuch other implementation there?

the basic http authentication uses simle user:password schema.

there 2 standard http authentication methods: basic access authentication (part of http/1.0 spec, rfc1945) , digest access authentication (latest according rfc2617).

.htpasswd mutual name file of apache's flat-file format used store user credentials. managed either htpasswd (basic) or htdigest (digest) command-line utilities. nginx doesn't reinvent wheel , uses apache's established format. example, on debian there's apache2-utils 2 aforementioned utilities (and others), can install utilities separately server.

.htaccess apache's advertisement hoc per-directory way override configuration.
