Thilina, Can you clarify J2/J1 on your posts?
In J2, the primary consumer of the user/role/group definitions are the Profiler and PageManager components. As you might of guessed, these select pages to be displayed in the portal given a request url. So, instead of granting access to individual portlets, you can use the profiling features and security permissions/constraints to control access to pages. AFAIK, security at the portlet level is not yet implemented in J2, but you can certainly achieve what you are looking for using the page based controls. Login as user/user, manager/manager, and admin/admin to the J2 demo site to see these features in action.

Under the developers group I have created tomi, sandra as users. Also I have 2 Iframe portlets called "dev guide and doc guide". My requirement is, developers can only view dev guide and mangers can view both portlets. 1) Can you explain how can I do this using the admin console? 2) Is it possible to add portalets to a group instead of adding portlets to each user? Then even for newly added users can view the portlets which are belongs to his group.(Say that I added a new user for developers group. Then, without adding the new portlet for that user, is it possible to view dev guide portlet? or am I need to add the dev guide portlet to new user?) Thank you.
