Sorry for the noob question, but I am having issues providing permissions to a certain group of users. I have created a role and assigned users to that role. However, I would like to just restrict the users to certain nodes, so that they could update only those nodes. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.

Whats the criteria for determining which nodes they can edit?

Hi WorldFallz, thanks for the reply.
They are just content nodes. I have certain pages that they need to update (girls softball league) with scores, rainouts and things like that. In a perfect world I would like to define what pages the role has access to so that they cannot screw up the site be editing something they shouldn't.
the Tac Lite module can do
the Tac Lite module can do exactly that.
I use it to give read access to certain users for certain content, but you can also give read/create/update access to certain pages by role as well. the only caveat is that you'll need to set up some taxonomy if you haven't yet.

Another option, if you don't want to setup a taxonomy, is the content_access module-- it allows you to randomly set access control for nodes to different roles and/or individual users. If you just need to assign access to individual users, nodeaccess_userreference is a nice simple option to use.
