Hi all!
I would like to know how can i create a new role.
I searched into all document of wps 5.1 on ibm site, but i haven't found any
thing.

Thanks!

Are you planning to create a new role in addition to existing roles in WPS?

Can you elaborate little bit more? what version? what role you like to creat
e?

I have to implement an intranet portal, so i would create a differet profile
 corresponding to any company's staff role.

Each staff role would have access to a different set of page, some of them w
ould be accessible by anyone (like mail portlet).

These profiles would be mapped to different roles in wps, is this correct? o
r i have to create groups of users.

I'm currently using wps 5.1.0.1 on windows 2003 with users on db (cloudscape
 in test).

there is a diffrent between the concept of roles and groups.What you want to
 do is to create diffrent user-groups and assign each group a role.There are
 7 diffrent roles defined in Websphere Portal like admin,security admin,dele
gator,editor,user,privelidg
ed user etc...

YOU CANT ADD ANY MORE ROLES OTHER THAN THIS.

what you can do is to assign permision to the portlets/pages on group basis 
or assign permission to pages/portlets based on 7 roles and then assign the 
people/groups to the correct roles.

hope this helps
