I have apache up and running and it works, but when I use digest authentication on the server i have noticed a simple workaround, here is my code:

<Location /Upload>
AuthType Digest
AuthName "UPLOAD AREA"
AuthDigestProvider file
AuthUserFile "C:/SERVER/auth/upload"
Require valid-user
</Location>

When people go to upload directory it asks for authenticaiton, which is fine. But if they put '/upload' instead of '/Upload' in the address bar it wont ask, am I doing something wrong?

The <Location> container is case sensitive. I recommend to use the <Directory> container.
