Dear Stuart, 
Thank you for your reply.

Inside the ou=AllUsers, we have many sub OUs in which different users
reside.
Does this require turning on Hierarchical LDAP?
Could the problem be due to the password used by the user to search the
active directory having special characters?

Below are my ldap settings

ldap.enable = true
ldap.provider_url = ldap://win2k.aub.edu.lb ldap.id_field = uid
ldap.object_context = ou=AllUsers,o=win2k.aub.edu.lb ldap.search_context =
ou=AllUsers,o=win2k.aub.edu.lb ldap.email_field = mail ldap.surname_field =
sn ldap.givenname_field = givenName ldap.phone_field = telephoneNumber
webui.ldap.autoregister = true

##### Hierarchical LDAP Settings ####
ldap.search_scope = 2
ldap.search.user = cn=dspace,ou=Special Users,ou=AllUsers,o=win2k.aub.edu.lb
ldap.search.password =  x...@!=

Take a look in [dspace]/log/dsapce.log[.datestamp] and watch that log file
as you try to log in. Hopefully it will tell you is wrong.

Which LDAP authenticator did you use, and does it match your LDAP structure?
Use LDAPAuthentication is all your users are in one OU (or branch) of your
LDAP tree, or use LDAPHierarchicalAuthentication if your users are spread
across different branches of your LDAP tree.
