Drupal for DummiesGranting User Permissions
I'm using Drupal 6 and I'm fairly new to it overall. My previous CMS experience is pretty basic. I would love to find some documentation that explains exactly what each of the "permissions" means/does. This would greatly help me decide which permission to grant to which user. There are an overwhelming number of checkboxes to choose from and I'm scared of granting the wrong thing!
I've found some of the permissions explained, but not all. Is it to be assumed that as a site admin, I should know what they all do? The company I work for hired an outside developer to set up our website using Drupal. I could contact that person with this question, but I'm saving that as my last resort. (billable hours = unhappy boss) Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Your role
It sounds like maybe your role, that is specifically tied to your username, isn't allowing you to create content.
What role do you have attached to you?

Create content
Ok, I am new to this and not sure where to turn. After installing and trying to follow the book I can't find a link to Create Content and when I click on the link on the frontpage/homepage I am told "Access denied
You are not authorized to access this page."
What did I do wrong?
Thanks
also, I downloaded 6.16 if that matters.
A resource describing each
A resource describing each permission for the core modules would be a great resource. I'll start putting one together on this site. For now, I'm happy to answer specific questions. If you put together a list of permissions you aren't clear about, I'll provide more information.
Thank you so much! I'll pick
Thank you so much! I'll pick a few of the most dubious ones (in my opinion, anyway) for your input.
