Post restrictions / Private entries HELP

Hi!
I was using PostLevels on wordpress 2.3 and the PostLevels plugin to restrict entries to registered users.

now I upgraded to 2.5 and the PostLevels plugin is still working but it doesn’t show the excerpt and title to unregistered users anymore.

I am looking for a solution or even an alternative to this.

I need to be able to have private entries but still let my readers know that there is a new post by using an excerpt or at least a title.

any help would be much appreciated ??
