It's working now. *thumbs up* Just in case someone else might make this boo boo, I'll go ahead and post here what I did that was wrong. *blush*

I had the registered users group set to "no" for this option:

Allow Users to have Member Groups (Sets whether or not permissions from the user's member (secondary) user group memberships are inherited or not)

*embarrassed smile*

I have a private forum, I found it easier to create the forum and set it up so that nobody has access then you can edit indvidual users permissions granting them access..
