Tim Donohue commented on DS-524:
--------------------------------
Although 'netID' is primarily used alongside LDAP, I think it could also be
used for other purposes. For example, at U of Ilinois, I know netID field was
used to determine if someone had successfully logged into DSpace using a U of
Illinois specific login system. If the user logged in successfully, that netID
was stored in DSpace -- and then it could be used for LDAP or Active Directory
lookups for more information.
In my mind, netID should *always* be editable to a DSpace Administrator.
However, we may not want it to be editable to an individual user (similar to
how a user cannot change his/her email address, but a DSpace Administrator
*can* change their email, if necessary).
So, I'd vote to treat netID similar to email in all cases, and not add any
unnecessary extra configurations.
Eperson netID is lost editing the record from the webUI
-------------------------------------------------------
Key: DS-524
URL: http://jira.dspace.org/jira/browse/DS-524
Project: DSpace 1.x
Issue Type: Bug
Components: JSPUI
Affects Versions: 1.5.0, 1.5.1, 1.5.2, 1.6.0
Reporter: Andrea Bollini
Fix For: 1.6.1
Editing an eperson record from the WebUI we lost the netid value.
The only way to prevent this is set to true the property: ldap.enable
The property is related to LDAP so I'm not sure if there is other implications
to use it... anyway, we need to separate these two concerns.
I propose to:
1) add a new configuration property to decide if the webUI is allowed to change
the netid value; the authorization logic should be checked in the Servlet and
not only on the client side as now is
2) always show the netid field, when appropriate as a readonly box
We need to check also the XMLUI to get a common behaviour.
