Drupal 4.6.6
I have created a forum called 'Announcement' that I want *only_the_admin* to be able to post topics to it. How do I block normal users from posting there? TIA.

Assuming that you've got ather forums that you want people to post topics to, you're going to have some trouble setting this up without the help of another module, or a custom hack. Forums just has the one global security settings for "create forum topics".
Node based security doesn't exist in the forums module out of the box. You might consider exploring using the taxonomy_access module to try and restrict access to the vocubulary or terms that make up the forum.
Hope that helps,
Dave

Thanks Dave. I got it working.
