Mark, thanks you, now I understand how it is build.
I think that I have to use plain MD5 without salt if I want to use DIGEST authentication. Tomcat 8 documentation should say that people have to use "-s 0" flag and copy md5 just after the last $-sign.

The credential output format is different (salt$iterations$digest) and salt is enabled by default. If you try digest -s 0 -a MD5 foo:foo:foo you get foo:foo:foo:$1$67ec44ba7c1234c8f201c261183e9d25 If you try digest -a MD5 foo:foo:foo on Tomcat 6 you get foo:foo:foo:67ec44ba7c1234c8f201c261183e9d25 Tomcat 8 will accept either format although it always generates them in the new format.
