Assigning administrator role to HomePage application in connections

I want to add custom widgets to my home page but for that i need to assign Administrative rights for HomePage application to one of the users, i followed these steps to assign admin rights

• Every application in the Lotus Connections make use of J2EE security for managing user roles. For example if i open the web.xml file for the HomePage.war i can see that it defines few roles, this is how the Admin role is defined
  

  
  <security-constraint>
   <web-resource-collection>
    <web-resource-name>
     Secure Catalog Administration
    </web-resource-name>
    <url-pattern>
     /admin/*
    </url-pattern>
    <http-method>
     GET
    </http-method>
    <http-method>
     POST
    </http-method>
    <http-method>
     PUT
    </http-method>
    <http-method>
     DELETE
    </http-method>
   </web-resource-collection>
   <auth-constraint>
    <role-name>
     admin
    </role-name>
   </auth-constraint>
  </security-constraint>
  

  
  If you look into the web.xml you will notice that it defines following roles
  
  
  
  1. person
  
  
  2. everyone
  
  
  3. reader
  
  
  4. metrics-reader
  
  
  5. admin
  
  
  
  


• Login into WAS admin console to assign admin role to the user


• In the WAS Admin console go to Applications -< WebSphere Enterprise applications and you will see list of applications deployed on the server
  
  


• 
  Click on the HomePage link to view the details of HomePage enterprise applications like this
  
  


• CLick on Security roles to users/group mapping link to view the current mappings
  
  
  In my case all other roles have some assignment but Admin role is not assigned to any one, so i did select the admin role and click on map users (Its better to map admin role to a group)
  


• Search for the user that you want to assign to the admin role, in my case wasbind and save your changes and restart the Lotus Connections server
  
  


• After server is restarted login as the admin user and on the home page you should see Administration tab like this
  
  


• When you switch to Administration tab you will notice that your allowed to enable disable widgets, publish new widgets on this tab
