Users are the same thing as roles, pretty much.  A user is a role with
the LOGIN attribute ... roles with the NOLOGIN attribute correspond to
what we used to call groups.  You can find more about that in the docs:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.1/interactive/user-manag.html

BTW, not to be impolite, but day-zero questions belong on pgsql-novice
not pgsql-admin.
