Sorry it still doesn't work for you. This seems to be an issue with 
Apache AUTH modules, unrelated to Digest AUTH or WebDav per se.

The only meaningful references I find to this issue are the following:

A. A problem report with someone stating they fixed the problem by 
disabling Apache module mod_auth_sys_group
http://objectmix.com/apache/673726-apache-2-2-error-not-required-group-s.html

B. A bug report in Apache saying module mod_auth_sys_group doesn't play 
nice with 'Require valid-user':
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=575009

You could try specifically disabling mod_auth_sys_group (unless you 
otherwise need it). However, I do not even find this module by default 
on Apache 2.2.14 on Lucid Lynx, so I don't know that is the issue.
