At some point in the past the FreeBSD Apache port did not install the 
htpasswd binary. One had to go find it in the sources ("make patch" 
would get them for you), compile it, and manually move it somewhere it 
could be used.

Am not sure if that was once Apache Policy followed by FreeBSD and
continued by Stronghold, or simply an oversight.

However if you are *paying* for Stronghold, one should pester them for 
support else they won't know their customers are having problems... Not 
that there is any problem asking on FreeBSD-questions too. Its worth it 
to learn Stronghold doesn't apparently include htpasswd...  :-)
