Passwords in .htpasswd are hashed, not encrypted, and in this case, using MD5. PS. Do not forget to mention what linux distribution version was used and the nginx version. Cheers

Thank you for the tutorial.

There’s one thing I want to ask. In the last picture, I can’t see the Nginx version. How can I do this?
