Hi helix84 (are you into DNA by any chance?),

I see what you are saying about using a "stack" of authentication methods, but 
should that be the case when only using one? My setup is:

plugin.sequence.org.dspace.authenticate.AuthenticationMethod = \
 org.dspace.authenticate.LDAPAuthentication

I don't understand why the password.jsp page is loaded instead of ldap.jsp when 
I explicitly tell DSpace to use LDAP. The bug you point out seems to apply to 
the case where multiple authentication methods are used.

Thanks for your help,
Gary
