My environment:
JBoss Portal 2.6
Database Vendor and Version : Oracle 10g
OS Platform : windows XP

My requirement is as follows:
I am new to portal technology as such and JBoss portal in particular.

I want to create a company intranet portal which is customizable based on the 
user login. Each user belongs to a different department within the company and 
lets say there are two departments in the firm. When user John belonging to the 
Legal department logs in, I want him to see data from the Legal applications 
and when user David from the Travel department logs in, I want to show him 
application data from applications related to travel. So this information is 
driven by data stored about the user in the database much earlier. 
Question is: I can think of identifing portlets based on the user-profile, but 
how do I tell Jboss portal about how to arrive at a layout - because based on 
the no. of applications relevant to the user (identified at runtime) the layout 
might be for 2 portlets or 4 portlets. What portal API would I use for getting 
this customization to work.

Since this is a common requirement, I am sure its supported by JBoss portal and 
many of you might have already implemented this feature.
I would appreciate any help.

Thanks in advance.
