granting permission to file/directory to a specific user

hello,

I would like to grant full access to a directory which is owned by root and the web application that created it. I have though of adding the permission to the whole world, but for security reason I would like to grant it to one more user.

I have tried this 'chmod -U newUser+wrx directory' which did not work, would anyone show me the right command and options to use

Thanks,
staph
