MP, I am more or less responsible for the J2 profiling and security features.
There is some documentation in the J2 design-docs under the profiler directory, (pull from CVS). Also the demo configuration for user/user, (username=user, password=user), uses profiling extensively to customize its view and security to limit its access to the admin pages/portlets. BTW, this functionality is page based, not portlet based. Portlet security constraints can be specified in the portlet.xml, but I am not sure if they are 100% implemented at this point. Feel free to send more specific J2 questions to the list.

Is it also true for Jetspeed2? If not - could you point me to where I could find it for J2? I looked through all documentation on the J2 home page and Wikis and could not find anything on how to control access to specific portlets based on user roles/ groups. Thank you!
