User management is a vital problem to be solved when constructing a Webportal for accessing grid resources. Most current approaches treat web and grid users separately. This is inconvenient to the system users. This paper presents a user management framework that combines the two kinds of user management. It also supports Single Sign- On and federated identity service through integration of different technologies such as Shibboleth, MyProxy and PURSe portlets.
