nginx itself does not support Digest authentication, only Basic one
(http://nginx.org/r/auth_basic).
If you are using some 3rd party module to implement Digest
authentication, you may want to refer to this module docs (or
sources) to find out how to properly use it behind a proxy.
Alternatively, consider switching to Basic authentication instead,
which is natively supported and, for obvious reasons, does not
have problems with proxying.
