The problem comes from AuthType being set to digst, but neither
RequirePasswordAlways nor RequirePasswordOnWrite being defined.

This is something you Gnome people invented, i.e. a directive you define
at start-up. That is, if you start the server with either:

/usr/sbin/apache2 -f your_dav.conf -C "Listen 46143" -D
RequirePasswordAlways

or


/usr/sbin/apache2 -f your_dav.conf -C "Listen 46143" -D
RequirePasswordOnWrite


things work.

However, don't ask me who defined this when for what circumstances.
That's an implementation detail of gnome-user-share.
