Not sure why it would work for Basic but not Digest. One difference is that 
Digest always requires a challenge-and-response cycle — even if it already 
knows the credential, NSURLConnection can’t send it the first time, but has to 
send the request without it, then get the challenge string in the HTTP 401 
response, then use that to construct the actual auth header that it sends on 
the next attempt.

But that should be transparent to you, since you just implement the callback to 
provide the credential on demand.
