Hi All, I am using Windows Active Directory to validate user in Dspace versions 1.8, 3.1 and 3.2 and it works fine. I use a special bind user account to validate users in AD. When user is new it create, Dspace creates the account using the email so the user can receive alerts and notifications. I proof this in Dspace 4.0 and the results are different, if user is new the account in Dspace is created with the uid instead of email and the email was lost, so the user cannot receive alerts and notifications. The authenticate-ldap.conf file is the same for all installations.
Is this a change direction in Dspace 4.0 to validate users using LDAP? I appreciate your help to solve this problem in Dspace 4.0 Cheers, Ing.

OK, now I'm a bit lost. Can you tell me again what your problem was before you set email_field = uid and what your problem is now? You're testing in JSPUI, right? Can you also always try the same thing in XMLUI? It should be the same, I just want to confirm it. > Any chance to get the fields surname_field =sn, givenname_field =givenName, > phone_field =telephoneNumber and mail? I've seen a situation where there was a null appended to the value of these fields but I'm not sure I've heard of a situation where they would be empty (it certainly works for me). If you bind with LDAP with the same user you're trying to log in to DSpace with, does that user see these attributes? My thinking here is that this might be a problem with your LDAP setup, not in DSpace. If this is the case, it might be worked around using the initial bind (with a user who has access to these attributes).
