I would think that you should put the reference to the JNDI data source in the
web.xml of your portlet application, not that of jetspeed and I assume it
*would* be accessible via a JNDI lookup somehow.
I have used a JNDI datasource indirectly in a portlet as I have a data source
set up as you describe and a component that exists as a servlet context
attribute that uses the jndi data source (I instantiate and set up that
component in a ServletContextListener implementation).
I can access my component by using:
request.getPortletSession().getPortletContext().getAttribute("mycomponent");
HTH,
