I read this issue and it sounds like mine:
http://drupal.org/node/399872

My situations is this:
Have a viewfield and a view that displays registrants. I set it so only admin and registrar roles should see it.
However, anyone can see it. Even anonymous users. I just use a 'default' view, no page display settings.
Works great, just no roles permissions are working as you would expect. Attached a pic of the view config page.

using:
D6.24
Views 6.x-2.16
CCK 6.x-2.9

I haven't used viewfield but this sounds similar to a problem I just had. I had set access control for a view to admin only but anybody could see it. The problem was that I had set 'access all views' permission for everybody, thinking that it was required for users to be able to see views but this is not the case. Removing the 'access all views' permission for all users solved the problem. See #258674: Access control not working / misleading permission for more details.

Damian, I check things over and I made the same mistake with the permission too! Doh!
But thanks for you words! Closing this out....
