I've been playing around with the Nodeauthor module, and it is exactly what I need. I'm inputting hundreds of pages onto a site I'm creating, and each of those pages needs to have information about the author (based on user accounts) at the bottom of the page. Nodeauthor gives me this functionality very quick and easy, but there's an issue with the anonymous users.
In the Permissions administration page (Drupal 6.2), I've set the role of 'Anonymous' to have the ability to 'View Author Info', yet when I test one of the pages when I'm not logged in, I see the 'About the author', but the content within just says 'n/a'. I've scanned the nodeauthor.module, and it is checking to make sure the user's role has access to 'View Author Info'. I'm at a loss to explain why the Node author info isn't showing up, my only thought is a conflict with another module perhaps? Help!

Did some more digging.
Did some more digging. Apparently the computers at work have some sort of setting or configuration that isn't allowing anonymous users on our network to be able to view it. I can view it fine from my home computer, both in Firefox and IE, but all the computers here at work have to be logged in to see the author's information. Makes testing a bit stressful...
