Hello Gary,

although I'm not certain about the URLs because I don't use JSPUI,
what you're seeing is normal and DSpace behavior documented here:
https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC18/Authentication+Plugins

Because there's a "stack" of authentication methods, it means each of
them will be tried in turn until one works (in the order defined in
dspace.cfg property
plugin.sequence.org.dspace.authenticate.AuthenticationMethod).

Again, I'm not sure abou JSPUI, but XMLUI has the same behavior -
regardless of which login form you use (/ldap-login or
/password-login), all of them are used in turn. The fact that the
forms have multiple names while there could be only one is known, in
fact it's reported as a bug:
https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-367

I hope that makes it clear.

Regards,
~~helix84
