To make use of the predefined Jetspeed Portal Services like the UserManager (see the available list of services *available* in 
WEB-INF/assembly/jetspeed-services.xml) you need to do two things:

a) provide a jetspeed-portlet.xml in your portlet application under WEB-INF containing something like:

   <portlet-app version="1.0"
     xmlns="http://portals.apache.org/jetspeed"
     xmlns:js="http://portals.apache.org/jetspeed"
     xmlns:dc="http://www.purl.org/dc"
     xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
     xsi:schemaLocation="http://portals.apache.org/jetspeed http://portals.apache.org/jetspeed-2/2.1/schemas/jetspeed-portlet.xsd">

     <js:services>
       <js:service name='UserManager'/>
     </js:services>

   </portlet-app>

   Only when Jetspeed finds this extended deployment descriptor it will provide access to the referenced services.
   Note: the extended deployment descriptor jetspeed-portlet.xml can be used to provide other type of jetspeed specific meta-data as well.

b) The referenced services are (only) then provided using an attribute in the PortletContext as defined in the jetspeed-api, 
org.apache.jetspeed.CommonPortletServices, like:

   UserManager userManager = (UserManager)portletContext.getAttribute(CommonPortletServices.CPS_USER_MANAGER_COMPONENT);

HTH,

Ate
