CCK Redirection doesn't work for me

I'm in the situation. Just installed this module when I realized that I'd like to have a content type that would just send my readers to original posts.

I just installed this module about half an hour ago and had the same question. Logging out quickly solved the problem. :) If it automatically redirected for the author as well, it would make it a bit more annoying to get to the edit view of the node.

@lpalmgren - That makes sense, but I have this problem also when logged out, i.e. when the author is not looking at the node. When I view it as the author, I get the "This node is redirected to a remote URI." message, when I would expect, but looking at the same node while logged out gives me simply a node with a title, and no content. The other redirect types, javascript, frameset, etc., show no difference.
Can anyone knowledgeable about how the module works know what we can do to track down the cause?

Got it, pretty easy oversight: in admin/user/permissions, I had not enabled view permissions for the anonymous user. That fixed it.

elcriticon, in admin/user/permissions I only see the permission for "bypass redirection" for CCK Redirection, did you mean enabling that one for the anonymous user ? I does not work for me !

Anyway I don't even have access to the node for the anonymous user (access denied)

I'm having the same or similar problem. I looked over the permissions page and couldn't see anything that made sense to change or add. Accessing the node-while logged out of the administrator role-takes me to the node instead of the page associated with the URL (external link).

OK, fixed this. The permission that needs a check in the box is under "content_permissions module" labelled "view field_[CCK Redirection field name]" where the name you assigned to the redirection field appears in the []'s.

had same problem, had same content_permissions fix :P

"bypass redirection" permission means display the link instead of redirect.
You need to set up a permissions for content_permissions module only if you have this module enabled
