Portal Instance Authentication

[psalvadori]

Hi all,
I've a question:
Is possible to have a different authentication DB for every instance of my portal?
So, if I enter in one of these instances I need some credentials to access protected area but these credentials are no valid to access protected areas owning to other instances.
Thanks, Paolo.

My configuration:
JBoss-4.0.3SP1
JBossPortal2.2

Define a role and assign users to this role in order to access a portal, page or instance.

Below I used Authenticated, but any defined role should be fine.

<security-constraint>
 <policy-permission>
 <role-name>Authenticated</role-name>
 <action-name>view</action-name>
 </policy-permission>
 </security-constraint>

Thanks PMO but I'm sorry, I didn't understand what you meant.
Can explain me deeply how can I define a new role and what xml file I must modify to do what you said? Can You make some example?

Thanks in advance, Paolo.

The security constraint should be located in the *-object.xml file and can be attached to , or in a deployment.

Every authenticated user gets the role Authenticated but you can specify any existing role to limit access of a portal, a page or a window to users who have that role (window I did not try).
