When users register on a drupal site, is it possible to either :

1) make all registered users become assigned to ONE role "xxxxx"

I guess "authenticated" is the default logged in registered user role - is that correct?
what if i want the default role to be called something else?

AND OR

2) make all registered users become assigned to ONE OR X roleS "xxxxx", "aaaaa", "bbbb" etc based upon some criteria. I'm not sure what criteria i could use but maybe someone can offer up suggestions of how/why i might assign users to different roles.

fyi, i know i can go in after a user is registered and then add them to different groups but that would seem tedious and somewhat error prone. i'd like this to be automated on registration in some way.

thanks

there is a rolesignup.module that may be worth investigating ? I thought there was a module that allowed you to do what you ask, but I may be thinking of the og_mandatory_group.
