  I am using the following code to to display my category posts for a particular category on a page however none of my pagination works and I am left with only a single page of posts and no options to go to older posts.

  <?php
  /**
   * Template Name: Insights
   *
   * Selectable from a dropdown menu on the edit page screen.
   */
  ?>
  
  <?php get_header(); rewind_posts(); ?>
  
  <div class="archive">
  
  		<?php
  		query_posts('cat=9&posts_per_page=6');
  		if (have_posts()) :?>
  
   	  <?php $post = $posts[0]; // Hack. Set $post so that the_date() works. ?>
   	  <?php /* If this is a category archive */ if (is_category()) { ?>
  		<h6></h6>
   	  <?php /* If this is a tag archive */ } elseif( is_tag() ) { ?>
  		<h6>Posts Tagged ‘<?php single_tag_title(); ?>’</h6>
   	  <?php /* If this is a daily archive */ } elseif (is_day()) { ?>
  		<h6>Archive for <?php the_time('F jS, Y'); ?></h6>
   	  <?php /* If this is a monthly archive */ } elseif (is_month()) { ?>
  		<h6>Archive for <?php the_time('F, Y'); ?></h6>
   	  <?php /* If this is a yearly archive */ } elseif (is_year()) { ?>
  		<h6>Archive for <?php the_time('Y'); ?></h6>
  	  <?php /* If this is an author archive */ } elseif (is_author()) { ?>
  		<h6>Author Archive</h6>
   	  <?php /* If this is a paged archive */ } elseif (isset($_GET['paged']) && !empty($_GET['paged'])) { ?>
  		<h6>Blog Archives</h6>
   	  <?php } ?>
  <div class="clear"></div>
  <?php $i = 0; ?>
  <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); $i++; ?>
  <div class="span-8 post-<?php the_ID(); ?><?php if ($i == 3) { ?> last<?php  } ?>">
  <h6 class="archive-header"><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title() ?></a></h6>
  <?php the_content(); ?>
  <p class="postmetadata"><?php the_time( get_option( 'date_format' ) ); ?> | <?php comments_popup_link('Comments »', '1 Comment »', '% Comments »'); ?></p>
  </div>
  <?php if ($i == 3) { ?><div class="archive-stack clear"></div><?php $i = 0; } ?>
  <?php endwhile; ?>
  <? wp_reset_query(); ?>
  
  <div class="clear"></div>
  
  <div class="nav-interior">
  			<div class="prev"><?php next_posts_link('&laquo; Older Entries') ?></div>
  			<div class="next"><?php previous_posts_link('Newer Entries &raquo;') ?></div>
  		</div>
  <div class="clear"></div>
  
  	<?php else : ?>
  
  		<h2 class="center">Not Found</h2>
  		<?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/searchform.php'); ?>
  
  	<?php endif; ?>
  </div>
  <?php get_template_part( 'bottom' ); ?>
  <?php get_footer(); ?>

  Any help would be great.
