With what browser ?

This is correct if you are using an user agent (= Browser) that
cannot support digest authentication because only digest is enabled
in your configuration. But you can use both basic and digest
authentication at the same time.

The browser will select the strongest supported in the following order:
Digest
NTLM (not in your config)
Basic

So, try leaving both digest and basic authentication enabled.

Regards

Guido
