I am running dspace 3.2 and have LDAP running, but when I assigned a group of 
"submitter" in LDAP and have a group for that with all of the collections in it 
as people log in they are not assigned to anything.

I also tried a particular collection and it didn't assign the new person into 
it either.  Does that make sense?  I would love to "test" anything you can 
throw at me!

No, DS-1576 fixes a problem where the right configuration property to enable 
ldap wouldn't be read.

To figure out which problem you're talking about I need to know your DSpace 
version. Assigining all LDAP users to a single group has always worked, AFAIK 
(the login.specialgroup option). There was new functionality added in 3.0 that 
allows multiple groups based on part of DN (see [1]), but this was reported 
broken - only the first mapped group would be used. I don't see a ticket for it 
yet, but see [2]. I'd like to fix this in time for DSpace 4.0.
