Thanks DeeDee

I just want to know one more thing. Suppose I have a package called Notes. And instead of the user going to http://someserver.com/notes. I want that a link to the notes package should be displayed on main user portal and the user should be able to click on it and he will then be directed to the notes package.

Is there a way.

Also I want the site wide admin to be able to add this link to any portal like, community portal, classes, etc.

Kindly let me know.

Many thanks
Ashem

Ashem,

If I am understanding you correctly, you would add the URL for Notes to either a custom portlet in the user portlet or add an icon to the page header, but either should be sufficient.  If Notes is on a separate server, they would have to login maybe,  but that's all.  Technically speaking, I think that adding an icon to the page header (say, next to Help and Logout) requires changing the adp for the page and creating the icon.

I hope this answers your question.
