I would like to have certain pages (nodes) only accessible by registered users (already logged in). I want the main page to be viewable by everybody (no log in required), but some pages only viewable if a user is logged in. What is the best way to do this?

investigate the user authentication category of teh downloads area. There are access modules to help you with this.

The Secure Site module appears to be what I need, but it does not have a 6.x version. Is there some module I am missing?

I have a website with several different types of content, the "access control" allows me to configure approximately anything! I suggest that you introduce new content type and convert the old type which you would like to restrict from some members to the new content type. Thereby limiting the access to that content. I think that would be a nice way of doing things since using other modules to limit access in one content type is pretty much a spaghetti like approach. This might slow down your website!

I'll assume you are talking about "Taxonomy Access Control". But this module is not computable with 6.x.

I believe the user is talking about native content access control which when you add a new content type provides for you the ability to decide what roles can view it. just like the default content types already in drupal where permissions are handled in administer -> permissions

thus if a new content type is create in adminsiter -> content types
a predefined set of access control is created specifically for that content type.
