Can I copy/paste htpasswd files to my new server?
I'm documenting the procedure for a full redeploy on my development server. Small staff, using Basic authentication (over SSL, of course) with an htpasswd file backend.
Is it safe to transfer the .htpasswd file as-is?
The Operating Systems will potentially differ, but the software on top (ie. Apache) will be the same.
It's safe to transfer the htpasswd file no matter what architectures you are on. It is a text file. The only case in which you might need to do some conversions is to deal with line endings if you were moving between Unix and Windows, but between Linux/Unix boxes, no problems.
If you're using apache, then the .htpasswd file should be the same. Just make sure you aren't overriding the password file to use in your new server config. And make sure you set proper permissions on the file so that you don't get any additional unauthorized entries.
Short answer: Yes you can.
That's all you need to know.
