One more thing, ./gen_ha1 generates HA1 string (see rfc2617), this is
not the response, but the response is calculated from it.

You must use ./gen_ha1 jakob(a)schlyter.net schlyter.net ser2003 to get
the same hash.
The reason is that you have realm in the username. A user agent that
sent the credentials above also calculate the response using
"jakob(a)schlyter.net" as username so you must do the same.
BTW you don't have to put @chlyter.net into the username, it is not
mandatory, you can use just "jakob".
The reason why do we handle this special case (realm in username) is
that there are some user agents which put this into username
automatically and it can't be switched off. Also, realm parameter in
the credentials is not protected by the hash so from time to time
people prefer to include the realm into the username parameter which
is protected by the hash.
