Hello Eric,
<snip>
I can see that the handle URI can be edited _after_ submission, but is
there some way of disabling it automatically so that the admin does not
have to edit each and every article/paper/report submission?

There is a patch available that makes DSpace use a local URL instead of a
handle server URL, but you will need to apply it and rebuild DSpace. It is
available here:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1597225&group_id=19984&atid=319984

What does the handle URI provide that the local item page does not?
</snip>
At a basic level, the reason for using a handle server is to get a
persistent URL for your DSpace content. Your Dspace URL contains machine
names and domain name(s) that may change for the course of years and
decades. The hope with using a handle server URL is that it will never
change, even if the DSpace URL changes.

PS: You are likely aware of this, but your existing URL
http://localhost:8080...... will only work on the DSpace server. The URL
will not work on other machines. Update the "dspace.url" and
"dspace.hostname" in your DSpace config file resolve this issue.

Hello all! Fresh DSpace user here, first posting to the list. Question:
The handle URI's point to bogus locations (ie:
<http://hdl.handle.net/123456789/5>http://hdl.handle.net/123456789/5 ). I
understand that this is by design and I've read the Handle Server section
of the Advanced Install instructions. Is there a way to get around the
$100 on the handle prefix through CNRI? --Is it possible to set the
article submissions not to include the <http://handle.net>handle.net
URI? I can see that the handle URI can be edited _after_ submission, but
is there some way of disabling it automatically so that the admin does not
have to edit each and every article/paper/report submission?
Although we're in the evaluating stages of DSpace, this will eventually be
a production-level University service offering. Is there any reason why
it would be beneficial to retain the handle server in such a case? I'm
not sure I understand the difference between the handle server and local
item pages. For example, the local item page for one article is
<http://localhost:8080/dspace/handle/123456789/5>http://localhost:8080/dspace/handle/123456789/5
and the handle URI for this same page is
<http://hdl.handle.net/123456789/5>http://hdl.handle.net/123456789/5
What does the handle URI provide that the local item page does not? I've
been to <http://handle.net>handle.net and I've read that handles "resolve
into the information necessary to locate, access, contact, authenticate,
or otherwise make use of the resources". Doesn't the localhost URL do
just the same?
I appreciate any advice given. Thank you kindly!
