+ <p><code>dbmmanage</code> is used to create and update the DBM format files
+ used to store usernames and password for basic authentication of HTTP users
+ via <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_auth_dbm.html">mod_auth_dbm</a></code>.
+ Resources available from the Apache HTTP server can be restricted to just
+ the users listed in the files created by <code>dbmmanage</code>. This
+ program can only be used when the usernames are stored in a DBM file. To
+ use a flat-file database see <code class="program"><a href="../programs/htpasswd.html">htpasswd</a></code>.</p>
+
+ <p>This manual page only lists the command line arguments. For details of
+ the directives necessary to configure user authentication in
+ <code class="program"><a href="../programs/httpd.html">httpd</a></code> see the httpd manual, which is part of
+ the Apache distribution or can be found at <a href="http://httpd.apache.org/">http://httpd.apache.org/</a>.</p>

+ <p>One should be aware that there are a number of different DBM file formats
+ in existence, and with all likelihood, libraries for more than one format
+ may exist on your system. The three primary examples are SDBM, NDBM, the GNU
+ project's GDBM, and Berkeley DB 2. Unfortunately, all these libraries use
+ different file formats, and you must make sure that the file format used
+ by <var>filename</var> is the same format that <code>dbmmanage</code>
+ expects to see. <code>dbmmanage</code> currently has no way of determining
+ what type of DBM file it is looking at. If used against the wrong format,
+ will simply return nothing, or may create a different DBM file with a
+ different name, or at worst, it may corrupt the DBM file if you were
+ attempting to write to it.</p>
+
+ <p><code>dbmmanage</code> has a list of DBM format preferences, defined by
+ the <code>@AnyDBM::ISA</code> array near the beginning of the program. Since
+ we prefer the Berkeley DB 2 file format, the order in which
+ <code>dbmmanage</code> will look for system libraries is Berkeley DB 2,
+ then NDBM, then GDBM and then SDBM. The first library found will be the
+ library <code>dbmmanage</code> will attempt to use for all DBM file
+ transactions. This ordering is slightly different than the standard
+ <code>@AnyDBM::ISA</code> ordering in Perl, as well as the ordering used by
+ the simple <code>dbmopen()</code> call in Perl, so if you use any other
+ utilities to manage your DBM files, they must also follow this preference
+ ordering. Similar care must be taken if using programs in other languages,
+ like C, to access these files.</p>
+
+ <p>One can usually use the <code>file</code> program supplied with most
+ Unix systems to see what format a DBM file is in.</p>
