Hi Johnson,
with a clean DSpace installation what you should see after you choose
our authentication method is E-Mail Address/Password (for
/password-login) and User Name/Password (for /ldap-login). If you see
something different, perhaps it is a result of some of your
customizations?
Your configuration might look like this (don't forget to restart
Tomcat everytime after changing it):
plugin.sequence.org.dspace.authenticate.AuthenticationMethod = \
org.dspace.authenticate.PasswordAuthentication, \
org.dspace.authenticate.LDAPHierarchicalAuthentication
Anyway, regardless of the strings you see in the login form and
regardless of which login form you see, the authentication methods you
configured will be tried in turn, because of the way the DSpace
authentication currently "stacks" methods. So even if you enter
login/password into /ldap-login and ldap_id/password into
/password-login, you should be successfuly logged in. This is
described in https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-367
