The way it works is anyone who can log in to LDAP can log into DSpace and then is assigned the specialgroup.
If you want only those who are students in LDAP to be able to log into DSpace, that's a different matter. There are two ways how your group information may be stored in LDAP: if your DN is something like "uid=username,o=org,dc=Students" then the group information is stored in DN. You can limit logins only for this group using: provider_url = ldap://ldap.example.com/o=org,dc=Students If, OTOH, your user group is stored in an attribute (e.g. group=Students), then you can apply a filter: provider_url = ldap://ldap.example.com/???(group=Students) (I haven't tested this second example).
