I'm not sure I fully understand, but take a look at these:

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.0/interactive/sql-createuser.html

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.0/interactive/sql-grant.html

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.0/interactive/sql-revoke.html

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.0/interactive/client-authentication.html

If these don't provide the information you need, please post again
with a little more information about what you're trying to
accomplish.
