Album Permission Problems

Aim: Create a number of albums which are only viewable to individual clients via a password or login

Problem: I've created the album, then I create a new group (e.g. 'ClientA'), and new user (e.g. 'ClientAuser') and place that user in that group. I then edit album permissions to allow 'View' and 'View full size' only to the 'ClientA' group. However, once I've done this it makes no difference whatsoever - everyone can still see the album and photos regardless of if they are logged in (as another user/group) or not logged in at all.

I tried installing http://codex.gallery2.org/Gallery3:Modules:albumpassword ad setting an album password but this also has no effect at all on user permissions.

Mod_rewrite is enabled (and working).

Any ideas how to fix this?

Thanks!

How are you albums structured?

Is it something like?

Home page
|
|--User Albums
   |
   |--ClientA

Or are you doing something different?

Yep - exactly like that (and I've tried having the albums at the root also)
