Single Sign-on This is a fairly broad topic. SSO in its strictest sense is simply leveraging a common authentication scheme across multiple applications. Most web-based applications look for the userID/password pair from the login page or look for http_remote_user first and, if not found, prompt for an ID and password. Since you will be coming from the jetspeed portal, the challange is to leverage turbine security for the other applications (since we are talking open-source then I imagine web-SSO products such as Netegrity SiteMinder or Oblix Netpoint are not in play). Regardless, the approach is the same. How do you leverage a common authentication scheme for these other applications? Without a dedicated web-SSO product, you probably need to replace the authentication code to your app with some code that searches for the turbine/jetspeed user and if found in the session, create the cookies, sessionIDs, or anything else your application needs.
We still haven't addressed authorization or provisioning, without which, you still will have to manage users in those other applications as well. As far as displaying new content within the same portlet, yes, there are a couple of approaches to doing this and it's not that difficult.
