How are you starting tracd (can you show us your command line)?  If you
look at:-
http://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/TracStandalone#UsingAuthentication

...it sounds like you need to specify "--auth" (to use digest), are you
using "--basic-auth"?

If you use 'basic', your browser is asked to send the username and
password (unencrypted!) back to the server for checking.  If you use
'digest', the password is 'digest'ed by the client before transmission,
so the server gets something very different...

Hope that helps,
