Now I guess the whole question is to make the portal once authenticated with
proper credentials to be trusted by the Globus tool kit. This is where the
entire scenario revolves. How to make the portal to be trusted by the GTK
after authenticated by Shibboleth ? Any suggestions would be greatly
appreciated.

It's not exactly clear what you're after, so if you could elaborate a
bit on what you want to do once the user has authenticated to the
portal, that would help.

As I mentioned earlier, there are grid portals in production today
that request grid services on behalf of the user. The portal may or
may not be shib-enabled, that's mostly irrelevant. The grid service
trusts the portal to make requests on behalf of the user. The portal
possesses a "community credential" for this purpose.

Cheers,
Tom
