All of those things are in the documentation. Did you read the
chapters entitled "Database Users and Privileges" and "Client
Authentication"? Those chapter titles are obvious and they're
visible in the documentation's top-level Table of Contents, so it
would be hard to claim that the information was buried where you
couldn't find it.

The PostgreSQL documentation is quite good -- many people have
learned the software thoroughly using nothing else, so give it a
chance. Go through the Tutorial and at least skim the rest so you
know what's there. If you're going to run your own server then do
spend some time reading the Server Administration part.
