OK, here is my problem with this

before I add the "restricted users" group, I use the multiselect in the resources area and highlight all but the one forum. I change all the permissions to the group to NO - oooh, where are my radio buttons Very Happy . then click the add button. That adds the forums to this new group. But I never see any indication of these forums attached to this group.

I then click the [Manage Users] link for the "restricted users" group and I see the Group Editor Selection screen.

I have the standard Anonymous and All Registered Users members with their various permissions. I click the [Find User] link and insert the special user I have added as a member. Now I click the Add Member button to add the special user. The permissions ( actually of all three members ) are taken from the permissions in the group manager's area.

The only thing I want the Anonymous and All Registered Users members to be able to do is view the forum in question. But I want the restricted user to be able to view and post ( only ).

It still has not done what I wanted it to do ( see above paragraph ).
