PostgreSQL users are not the same as local system users (a PostgreSQL
server can be accessed from other machines, if you configure it so.)
You need to create database users with the SQL command CREATE USER or
the system command createuser. Look up their documentation to see how.
You also need to look at access controls in $PGDATA/pg_hba.conf - see
the Administrator's manual.
