they're note encrypted. They're run through a one way hash. I don't
remember which one, it should be easy to find in the code.

Do you mean you don't want to use apache, or you don't want to use
apache's htaccess? RT has no concept of htaccess, it either uses its
internal stuff, or it trusts what it gets handed. And apache can be
configured to use one of many different authentication mechanisms, not
just htaccess.
