I have been searching and reading lot's of documentation about this topic. Considering the configuration i want i'm still left with certain questions.
Until nowi havent been able to get the next configuration right.
In Drupal 6:
Lets say i want 3 grouptypes(groupnodes) sitewide. A, B, and C.
And sitewide i have 3 different types of content that act as groupposts. pages, story, blog.
Restrictions (the ones that are causing me some shorter nights lately)are the following:
1.All groupposts should be able to be posted by all groupmembers except for blogs, they only should be able to be created/published by groupadmins.
2.All three content types should be able to be posted in a group, except for blogs. In group C, members (except for groupadmin) shouldn't be able to create/publish blogs.
It would be great if a module or combination of modules could offer a clear overview, and would be able to set up the configuration i just mention.
And it could be well so that among the modules i've tried until now i overlooked something.
Until now i tried:
og content type admin- caused conflicts and errors
og read only - didn't cover the whole task
content access - not sufficient enough
OG Audience By Type - not sufficent enough
Love to hear some suggestions on this one.
Thanks,
Byron

I'm trying to figure this out as well. I'm looking into using Taxonomy Access Control. Maybe that helps. Let me know if you figure something out.

you can make this possible with OG user role.
Use this version:6.x-1.x-dev

Not sure if it still applies, but that module was not recommended by moshe at the DoitwithDrupal conference. See the presentation's pdf - last page.

Instead of using the Drupal blog feature (which is user-based), I created a new content type called "News" which functions like a blog for each group.
I then combined that with "og read only" and set the News to read-only.
Blogs for the user were set to "not in a group".
If you need more permission, tie them to the user Permissions setting for the roles.
P.S. I think your description of what you want is a bit off...? Blogs should be group posts but not postable in a group? *confused*
HTH.
