Answer1:

ASP.NET 2.0 Roles and maps files make it easy to do that per role. Read the article about it so you can understand the basics

You cannot go wrong with mr guthrie http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2005/10/18/427754.aspx

Let me know after reading it if you got any questions.

Answer2:

Create 3 roles Administator, SA and Guest. Then check if the logged in user is in the SA role if so show button 4 & 5, if a user is not logged in at all or is guest only show button 1. If you set up a site map you can set the permissions in the XML file.

Answer3:

can you please give me more information about how to setting permissions in the XML file ?

and how to use XML file ? ( sorry but have no idea how to start...)

thank you very much
