I am running DSpace 5.5 with XMLUI and Oracle.  I am seeing very unwanted 
behavior when a user logs in.  Here are the details of my config:

I am using LDAP authentication - that's appears to be working, in as much 
as all users can login using their LDAP credentials.  The issue I am seeing 
is as follows:

I have a user who already has an eperson record with say eperson_id=100 and 
that eperson has an email address of b...@thing.org in the eperson database 
record..  That eperson is assigned to various authorizations (COllection 
Admins, etc.).  Whne that person authenticates via the login page, what 
happens is that a brand new eperson record is created with eperson_id=101, 
with just the userid in the eperson email column in the eperson table, i.e. 
bob.  That new eperson, of course, has no authorizations, since they were 
just created as a function of logging in.

I have deleted via the UI, the original eperson record (the one with 
b...@thing.org) with eperson_id-100 and also the newly created one with 
eperson_id=101.  So, now that user has no eperson records.  I then ask that 
user to try and login and it is successful with yet another simple eperson 
record created (again with just bob in the email address and 
eperson_id=102).

What am I missing or what is mis-configured such that this is happening?

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Regards,

Don Bynum
