- The `htpasswd` utility is not installed on the server, so you have to copy it to another Linux machine. 

== Procedure

1. Copy the file to a local machine. `scp {username}@{server-name}:/local/trac-deploy/apache-conf/lcbru-trac.htpasswd .`
2. Run the command
{{{
    htpasswd ./lcbru-trac.htpasswd {firstname.lastname}
}}}
3. You will then be prompted for a password.
4. Copy the file back to the server `scp ./lcbru-trac.htpasswd {username}@{server-name}:/local/trac-deploy/apache-conf/lcbru-trac.htpasswd`
