Let's say you have created htpasswd file /usr/local/share/users.htpasswd. The cat command can be used to view the contents of the htpasswd file.

~]# cat /usr/local/share/users.htpasswd
john.doe:$2y$05$sLPYyKUXPaaDfnCXCiz0CueZxRp2eX3NYhgPXaMHBYqCEFeVBZGi6
jane.doe:$2y$05$ZUfeWdLh0Vb1uCHpfS1iTurbeDlUaiigFHSn5dwbCdbcIemXjxVYO

The htpasswd command with the -D (delete) option can be used to delete a user from the htpasswd file.

~]# htpasswd -D /usr/local/share/users.htpasswd jane.doe
Deleting password for user jane.doe
