Jean, Morten, and all,
I've used Organic Groups, Taxonomy Access Control and Content Access, and I think, all other things being equal, that Content Access is the simplest of the three, especially for a beginner.
I find organic groups fairly easy to use when groups are public but pretty complicated and confusing when trying to pull off private groups.
I also think that if Morten is a beginner, it's not a bad idea to use separate installations, as he has concluded. I would use a different theme for each site or use Garland with different color schemes so that staff really understand that the sites are different and won't get confused about logging in etc... on the different sites.

Would it work to use Organic Groups and just have the intranet part be private groups on one site?

Laura and Shai,
thanks a lot for your suggestions! I think I'll go with separate installations then, as this seems the easiest way and I really dont have the nerves to risk potential showstoppers along the way.
cheers Morten
The simplest at this point would probably be to share a filesystem, if you want, but have different databases, then set up single signon. Splitting one site across several domains or subdomains can be complicated. The multidomain module does this, ostensibly, but can be rather tricky to configure.
If you do SSO in the arrangement you say, you wlll want to watch out for cookie collisions.
