I'm currently trying to make information available to users over the
internet and have set up the olap report on iis.
I have defined Cube roles which retricts a certain dimension. is it
possible to make a login system that will match the user with a
certain cube role? Thanks a lot.

Unfortunately, no. A role must have either a username or a group as members.
The system cannot do automatic mapping -- as an admnistrator you must do it
by-hand. However, there are ways you can script out and then create roles
from the command line -- but you must implement this. Look at using the
DSO/XML tool with it's ability to import/export objects from xml files.
