Hi,
you could make 2 menus above each other and disable the menu title (BLOCKS settings) and make there also the 2nd menu just visible for authenticated user.

Well if an anonymous use rwould findout about the content link, it can be still accessed ...
Cheers,

To have the special content only accessable for auth user you could create a new content type ...eg. auth user and release these special content in auth user content type?

In theory after you created a new content type it should appear in user management - permissions under the node tab.

btw i use 6.2, so things migth be diffrent for you :)

I am using drupal 5.5. Using the procedure you described, I created an authuser type. I can limit permissions to create, or edit, that type. But I can not seem to limit permissions to view that type.

i set up the link as a primary link, a block is created and i set the block to appear for authenticated users only!!!
