I'm trying to connect my ldap with the geonetwork database but every time I log in it doesn't show the administrator button. Then I check the database and it is empty. I am using GeOrchestra 13.09 in a localhost enviroment, the geoserver and mapfishapp are running well and they log in without a problem.
My config-security.properties is
Core security properties

The version of GeoNetwork currently used in geOrchestra does not show the "administration" button on its first page. You have to fire a search, then in "other actions" menu on the top right, you should be able to get to the administration interface. We know that it is not very intuitive, but it should change in the next months (we recently planned an upgrade of GeoNetwork before the end of the year).
