I see two ways to tackle this (three if you include build everything from
scratch).
1. Alter your role management to inherit from the Microsoft Role Management
bits. This is the simplest, as long as it does not completely tear up your
model. You then have to hook in the MS events to your role management and
you are done.
2. Implement a custom site map provider and override the security trimmings
behavior. This may be easy (have not looked), but I would imagine it is a
bear, as I have seen little blogged about it.

Hi, I have a question with respect to the security implementation of Menu
using sitemap. Normally in the sitemap we can implement role based
security
but that is based on the Role based functionality provided by ASP.NET.
Actually in our site we are using custom roles with our own role
management
and stuff. So is there a way to hide or show certain elements of the
Sitemap
in my menu based on the custom roles without using asp.net roles
