Dear all, We've just upgraded our DSpace from 5.1 to 6.0. We want to restrict the bitstream access to one collection to campus only. I enabled the IPAuthentication statement in /dspace/config/modules/authentication.cfg and add our school ip range to authentication-ip.cfg like this:
authentication-ip.Campus_Access = xxx.xx Then I assigned the collection and its items' bitstream authorization policy (Action = READ) to the above group (Campus_Access). Now the problem is that we cannot access the bitstream both off-campus and on-campus. Every item's bitstream has a lock and either we have to login or access, or request a copy by filling in an email address. What we expected is that when accessing the bitstream file on-campus(within the ip range), it should open directly. After so many failed tries, I start to suspect that it's a program bug, because it worked for our previous version (5.1). Does anyone encounter such problem for DSpace 6.0? Is there any workaround to solve this issue? Or we are not doing it right? Thanks so much in advance for any help and guidance!
