Hi Stuart
You kindly helped me customise the special groups code in
/home/dspace/dspace-1.5.2-src-release/dspace-api/src/main/java/org/dspace/authenticate/LDAPHierarchicalAuthentication.java
to differentiate between staff and student login.
I have just downloaded the source code for dspace 1.6.0 and looked at
the above file.
Before I take the plunge, can you please confirm that the patch we
applied below will still work with the 1.6.0 code?
Thanks very much
Clive

public int[] getSpecialGroups(Context context, HttpServletRequest request)
{
try
{
if (!context.getCurrentUser().getNetid().equals(""))
{
Group staffGroup = Group.findByName(context, "all-staff");
Group studentsGroup = Group.findByName(context, "all-students");
// Does the username start with a '1'?
if ((studentsGroup != null) &&
context.getCurrentUser().getNetid().startsWith("1")))
{
// Add them to the students group
return new int[] { studentsGroup.getID() };
}
else if (staffGroup != null)
{
// Add them to the staff group
return new int[] { staffGroup.getID() };
}
}
}
catch (Exception npe) {
// The user is not an LDAP user, so we don't need to worry about them
}
return new int[0];
}
