I'm not if it will solve your problem but Views can be restricted to
roles. When editing a view, check the Access item under Basic

<p class="MsoNormal" dir="ltr"><font color="black"
face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Unfortunately
Drupal isn't so straightforward as to provide
a one to one relationship between an accessible/inaccessible node and
the permissions
page (which would have been great). One has to fiddle and experiment
for quite
some time before the relationship is clear sometimes. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" dir="ltr"><font color="black"
face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Besides
the path to the nodes in question are defined
through a View (and not a page) and so I believe Content Access/ACL
will be
redundant. How do you grant access to a _<i><span
style="font-style: italic;">View</span></i>_
based on role? Is there a way? Please correct me if I am wrong?<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
