Andy:

I am not quite sure about all this stuff. This is what I think about it.

The option to display a certain button (minimize, maximize, close,
customize) is directly derived from the actions (=permissions?) that a user
is allowed to do. You might want to have a look at the file
template/vm/controls/html/jetspeed.vm. 

So, after you have deleted a certain permission of the role "user" for
example, any user with the role "user" (e.g. the user "turbine") won't be
allowed to execute this action any more. You can delete each permission with
the "Security Role Browser" to which you will get access after having logged
in as the administrator.

Unfortunately all this works only with portlets that are specified to use a
certain security role. This is specified in the registry (XREG files).

So after all, the simple solution would be to give the anonymous user the
permission to maximize and minimize the portlets. But the problem is: There
is no anonymous user!

Is there anybody that has a real solution? What does Jetspeed actually do,
if there is no user logged in? Which permissions and roles does it use?


best regards
