iCal digest authentication broken after system crash

Our XServe crashed a few days ago. It rebooted fine and all services works like before the crash. Only iCal authentication is giving me a headache. Digest authentication isn't working. Kerberos works and Basic, but I need Digest to work too. For web-authentication, everything works too, and we know the password is correct.

caldavd > access.log gives this:

127.0.0.1 - username [09/Jan/2013:14:38:15 +0200] "PROPFIND /principals/ HTTP/1.1" 207 504 "-" "Mac OS X/10.8.2 (12C60) CalendarAgent/55" i=8009 t=8.0 or=2

ApplePasswordServer.Server.log gives this:

Jan 9 2013 14:38:15 AUTH2: {0x4785feb3473967ce0000007a00000416, username} WEBDAV-DIGEST authentication failed, SASL error -13 (password incorrect).

ApplePasswordServer.Error.log gives this:

Jan 9 2013 14:38:15 client response doesn't match what we generated

Any ideas on what to look for? Caches or corrupt files to check?

Thanks!

Finally found the error. Somehow a setting for Digest authentication had changed to

Calendar:Authentication:Digest:Qop = "auth"

after changing it back to

Calendar:Authentication:Digest:Qop = ""

everything works well again!

waehlby,

Where did you find and adjust that setting for Digest authentication?

You need to run serveradmin from Terminal:

sudo serveradmin settings calendar:Authentication

will show you all authentication settings you can change.

Thanks. My settings already matched what you said you had changed yours to. So that apparently isn't the fix to my problem.
