With apache2-2.2.3-20 apprently, these were renamed to "htpasswd2" and "htdigest2". They should both be located in the /usr/bin directory:
ehud:/usr/bin # rpm -qa | grep apache2-2
apache2-2.2.3-20
ehud:/usr/bin # ll htpasswd2 htdigest2
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 10160 Nov 25 12:31 htdigest2
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 14292 Nov 25 12:31 htpasswd2
ehud:/usr/bin #
I found these on another one of my Suse 10.2 boxes. I need to verify that I have this version on my other box and that these executables exist there too.
Do you have these executables on your box?

yes, this was the solution that i discovered it to be (eventually!). You'd have thought they could have been nice and done an ln -s htpasswd2 htpasswd2 for you.
