Has anyone had luck getting IP Authentication to work with recent
checkouts of 1.5.2 (I'm using code that was checked out a week or two
ago)?  I'm not sure if my troubles stem from local configuration
issues, or the problem reported here:

http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=119984&aid=2088431&group_id=19984

I have added "org.dspace.authenticate.IPAuthentication" and
"authentication.ip.on-campus = x.x.x" lines to my dspace.cfg.  I have
also created a group called "on-campus" and a collection called
"restricted" with the following policies:

read = on-campus
default_item_read = on-campus
default_bitstream_read = on-campus

My expectation was that with the above settings, unauthenticated users
on the x.x.x subnet would be able to view the "restricted" collection,
along with any items added to it, without authenticating.  Instead,
when unauthenticated users attempt to view the collection, they are
prompted to login.  No matter if one is logged in or not, I only see
references to PasswordAuthentication and
LDAPHierarchicalAuthentication in dspace.log, and no mention of
IPAuthentication.

So is this a local problem with my config.cfg, something to do with my
group/collection configuration, or the bug mentioned above?
