Assigning rights to the authenticated user role
Within your Drupal site, you can use roles to assign specific permissions to groups of users. As described in the brief glossary in Chapter 1, Introducing Drupal, Drupal comes with two default roles: the anonymous user and the authenticated user. Anonymous users are all people visiting the site who are not site members; all site members (that is, all people with a username and password) belong to the authenticated user role.
To assign rights to specific roles, navigate to People | Permissions | Roles or admin/people/permissions/roles
.

As shown in the preceding screenshot, click on the edit permissions link for authenticated users.
Assign authenticated users the following rights:
- The Comment module: Authenticated users can see comments and post comments. These rights have the comments going into a moderation queue for approval, as we haven't checked the Skip comment approval box.
- The Node module: Authenticated users can see published content.
- The Search module: Authenticated users can search the site.
- The User module: Authenticated users can change their own username.
Once these options have been selected, click on the Save permissions button at the bottom of the page.
