This is what I'm finding in the log file: 2011-02-07 10:09:04,284 INFO org.dspace.authenticate.LDAPHierarchicalAuthentication @ anonymous:session_id=36F5668310DE405281CC4104721E98AD:ip_addr=129.62.210.158:auth:attempting trivial auth of user=karen_savage 2011-02-07 10:09:04,779 INFO org.dspace.authenticate.LDAPHierarchicalAuthentication @ anonymous:session_id=36F5668310DE405281CC4104721E98AD:ip_addr=129.62.210.158:failed_login:no DN found for user karen_savage 2011-02-07 10:09:04,779 INFO org.dspace.app.xmlui.utils.AuthenticationUtil @ anonymous:session_id=36F5668310DE405281CC4104721E98AD:ip_addr=129.62.210.158:failed_login:email=karen_savage, realm=null, result=2
The first thing I'm noticing is the anonymous session. Our LDAP server doesn't allow anonymous access and our LDAP guy gave me the DN and password of a user to put in the config file. He's also double-checked the rest of the LDAP related variables to confirm they are correct. So is it normal for it to say anonymous in the log file, or is it missing something in the config file?

If you look in your [dspace]/log/dspace.log-{datestamp} file, there should be some information saying why the authentication failed. This might give a clue as to what is going on.
