There are multiple solutions to this common requirement. The easiest is
probably to implement your own SecurityValve. Just make sure you use the
existing o/a/j/security.impl.SecurityValveImpl.java as a template. Then
there is JAAS...

There are many nice ways to accomplish this with J2 using the Profiler.
Custom home pages per user, group, or role are easily supported. One can
also select different home pages using different profiling rules. Once

I think this can be addressed in the layout decorators/macros if you would
like a quick workaround, (it invokes a method in the JetspeedPowerTool
