Hi Amjad, this is the expected behaviour. That's why people use central authentication (LDAP) - so that they can manage accounts and passwords separately from applications (DSpace). I think what you're missing here is that you don't have to register when using LDAP. Just turn on autoregistration and you don't need to use the registration form at all. Every time you log in, you'll be authenticated against LDAP (that's why you don't need to store any password). When autoregistration is turned on, the first time you *log in*, a row will be created for you in the eperson table. When you log in using ldap and you're autoregistered, your password in the eperson table will be set to null. > When i click on register page, it brings me to ldap registration form. At > the same time, it sends me error notification as shown below. See above. You don't use the registration form with LDAP. Just log in.
