How do I restrict whitepaper downloads to registered users?

Hi

I am building a site that has a "whitepapers" section. The files / attachments in this section are to be restricted only to registered users. How do I restrict access to download the whitepapers to only registered users?

I have installed Taxonomy_access module and also tried using the file-system feature in core Drupal without any success.

Can someone suggest a quick way to implement this?

Thanks in Advance

Private Upload module does the trick

Here's what you do...

Use Upload (which is core to Drupal 6.x) and Private Upload modules (unfortunately, Private Upload only works with the Upload module, not the CCK Filefield function). Private Upload allows you to create a restricted folder to place files in and then only authenticated (or other roles you specify) have access to it.

if ur using cck to upload ur files have a look at the following

It will guide you in the right direction.

If you are using the core upload solution then
http://drupal.org/project/private_upload

should work.
