The question here is how can you tell apart: a) when the user is denied access due to not being logged in (in which case the login box should be displayed); and b) when the user is denied access due to embargo (in which case you don't want to display the login box)
Yes, this is our dilemma. We can't tell them apart; but in our repository everyone has view access unless embargoed. Therefore only Administrators should have access. In which case they can login via the My Account panel we have on the right hand navigation.

Yes, now it does. The question here is how can you tell apart: a) when the user is denied access due to not being logged in (in which case the login box should be displayed); and b) when the user is denied access due to embargo (in which case you don't want to display the login box) Do you still use the original 1.6 embargo as opposed to simplified embargo introduced in DSpace 3? In that case which metadata field stores the information that there is/isn't an embargo?
