Had a think about this; are you talking about using security-role-ref's? So, use something like: | <security-role-ref> | <role-name>MyLDAPRoleToCheck</role-name> | <role-link>Admin</role-link> | </security-role-ref> | If so, where would that go? In the web.xml in jboss-portal.sar\portal-server.war\WEB-INF? Against which servlet? Thanks, Paul View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3994263#...
