When you go through the Discussion Web Site Wizard you'll see an option for
"Yes, only registered users are allowed". You'll also need to change the
site permissions once you're done. The best thing is to create the
Discussion Web in it's own sub we (sub site) so you don't overwrite it when
you publish your main site. You can also set unique permissions from the
root if you put it in a sub web. Keep in mind the the FP Discussion Web is
very basic. For more functionality you should look for a third party
alternative. For example, if your host is on a windows server and allows
ASP.NET pages you can get the ASP.NET discussion forum at
www.asp.net (Check
with your host and see what they offer)
