Hi Stuart
You kindly helped me customise the special groups code in
/home/dspace/dspace-1.7.0-src-release/dspace-pi/src/main/java/org/dspace/authenticate/LDAPHierarchicalAuthentication.java
to differentiate between staff and student login.
Before I build DSpace 1.7.1 from source can you please confirm that
the patch below should work properly with 1.7.1
Thanks very much
Clive
