Web Parts Personalization Provider Help

I have a website that allows portal Admin to make changes to their home page, such as title, welcome text, image etc When a user logs in they have access to their chosen portal and can view the content published by the portal administrator. (Note there is more than one portal home page)

To add more functionality to the site I have introduced Web Parts to the portal admin page allowing the administrator to customize their page layout. This all works fine and any changes made are stored in an SQL Server 2000 database using the AspNetSqlPersonalizationProvider.

Users log into a different section of the site (Different folder - Authentication is handled by membership and role providers) where they can access the portal home page, and view the administrators content.

My problem is: how do I allow the logged in user to view the web parts in the same configuration as the portal admin page.

Do I need to create a custom personalization provider? If so, how would I go about doing that?

Many thanks,

Jon:confused:
