how to restrict access to portals without roles

[TimW1]

How do I user control access to portals without using roles?  I currently have my instances configured so that my users get directed to my /sp portal if they have no roles.  I want to be able to create a second portal (external facing) and limit specific users to access to it.  I am thinking something like having a field on the user record that is a list of portals they can access and if the portal they are attempting to load is in their user record's list then ok and proceed in loading otherwise redirect to login screen.

Anyone else have any thoughts on how to control access to specific portals without roles?  I don't want to use roles because that breaks my redirect to /sp logic I am using.

Thanks,

Tim Williams
