Is there any way to give dinamic roles when a user is logged?

For example: A user logged from different places.

I do not completely understand the concept of different places but:
You may create a hook on pre or post login action;

1
2 #
3 # Login event
4 #
5 login.events.pre=com.liferay.portal.events.LoginPreAction
6 login.events.post=com.liferay.portal.events.ChannelLoginPostAction,com.liferay.portal.events.DefaultLandingPageAction,com.liferay.portal.events.LoginPostAction

on succesfull login remove all roles and add the necessary Role(s) with RoleLocalServiceImpl

Thanks.
I mean same user connected with different IPs. If she's at office he/she should have some roles. If she's at home, he/she should have some basic roles.

Well with the postLogin action you'll have the servlet request so you can find out ip address an act accordingly

1
2
3public class LoginPostAction extends Action {
4
5 public void run(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
6 throws ActionException {

I advise you to take a look at the Liferay IDE and create a Hook project;

Nice! Hooks are very handy!!

However, I cannot find the way to set the user's roles. I got user, IP and roles... but there is no User method to do it or if this is the way.

1
2public void run(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res) {
3       String IP = req.getRemoteAddr();
4       boolean isFromIntranet = (IP.startsWith("127")||IP.startsWith("192"))?true:false;
5
6       // If is Remote User -> Detach all user roles. Assign RemoteUser role.
7       if (!isFromIntranet) {
8          System.out.println("You are logged as Remote User ("+IP+")");
9          try {
10             User user = PortalUtil.getUser(req);
11             List<Role> roles = RoleLocalServiceUtil.getUserRoles(user.getUserId());
12             //What else?
13          } catch (Exception e) {
14             e.printStackTrace();
15          }
16       } else {
17          System.out.println("You are logged from the Intranet.");
18       }
19}
