I don't know what exactly is causing this problem, but I can tell you that
you are wasting your time with mod_digest. As the documentation says, this
module is obsolete. Try mod_auth_digest instead.

Joshua,
Thanks for the tip.
I still need some serious help though. (My inexperience is showing)

I added the new digest module like this:

httpd.conf
LoadModule digest_auth_module modules/mod_auth_digest.so
AddModule mod_auth_digest.c

Also remmed out the mod_digest

Now I get:

Starting httpd: Syntax error on line 150 of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf:
Cannot load /etc/httpd/modules/mod_auth_digest.so into server:
/etc/httpd/modules/mod_auth_digest.so: cannot open shared object file: No
such file or directory

I copied mod_auth_digest.c into /usr/lib/apache

I guess I need to compile something to get the .so file?

Yes. Go back to the original instructions you used to compile apache and
they will tell you how to add optional modules. If you didn't compile
apache yourself, then either ask the people who did, or try it yourself
now.
