Current Forums Portlet is not under development, and has very simplified security
implementation (as described in wiki). You cannot setup role based access to specified
categories.
What is misleading is that security stuff in jboss-portlet.xml is not used and should be
removed. Only settings in portlet.xml are used. Sorry for that...
Currently whole Forums Portlet is being rewritten in JSF and should be released soon.
So what you can do is implementing by yourself as it is OSS. You can find all security
checks in:
org.jboss.portlet.forums.ForumsPortlet
What you look for is:
ForumsTools.hasPermission(.....)
method call.
Or wait for new shining Forums Portlet JSF implementations with pluggable security model
;)
