Hi Helix, Weirder and weirder. I just changed my credentials so that I could recreate the error without the assistance of the affected user, and I cannot recreate the error. The new credentials work fine for me, and my old credentials do not. This user still has the issue in DSpace, yet they can access other systems without error. I have not written any code for storing, saving, or manipulating passwords in DSpace, and the only place in the database that I am aware stores a password is the eperson table, which I have ensured is blank.
I have checked with the IT guys, and there is no replication or duplication happening, only one LDAPserver. Any other ideas?

Although DSpace can create an eperson on the first login via LDAP (if autoregister is set to true), it only means that a row in the eperson table is created. The password is not stored in DSpace and the user is always authenticated by trying to bind to LDAP with the specified username/password. If I were you, I'd take a look at your LDAP infrastructure. If you have some kind of replication set up or if you're using custom code to change the password in multiple systems (LDAP being just one of them), the changed password may not yet have propagated to the LDAP server DSpace uses. So try to bind the user using e.g. the ldapsearch utility or any other LDAP client. My bet is that the LDAP server still has the old password.
