Dysfunctional new board at new site

I am sorry no one knows the answer to the very simple question. How can I make the board require approval for posts of new users.

As you have been told already, in User Registration settings you set the New member post limit to however many posts you want to have to be approved before they no longer need to be approved. That's it.

No I set it to 5 and they are posting immediately anyway

If you have a user that is in the Newly Registered User group who can freely post you, or someone else, must have changed the permissions. By default users in the NRU cannot post without moderation.

Make sure that the Groups forum permission for Can post without approval is set to Never for all forums for the NRU group.
