I particularly like the use of XSLT to do the checking, makes it very
adaptable.
Is the sunRise-login action defined anywhere?
How do you use the 'role' attribute in practice?
I am still trying to figure out how to pass people onto where they
originally wanted to go ;)
I'd like to work out how to protect an entire sub-sitemap, with the minimum
of pipelines, added hopefully to the parent.
Are there examples of this in the Portal Demo? Sorry, I have not studied it
closely yet.
