Members only section or password protect a page?

Hello,

I am somewhat new to word press, but have been able to utilize it quite a bit. I was curious if there were a plugin that would help create a members only page, or section on a wordpress powered site?

I have seen this on drupal, etc.. but don’t want to adventure to another CMS for this.

My need is to only have a few files that are protected for download from a few users that I would assign.

Thank you in advance.

Cheers,

W
