Buddy,
In Unix, the users have been characterised into three groups:
Owner (you)
Group (a group of other users that you set up)
World (anyone else browsing around on the file system)
So you can put the users according to your conditions. Once this is done then u can provide permissions to those groups as a whole which will equally be applied on the users inside it.
This is the only way. We can't give permissions to users individually.

pts_listentries
PTS_LISTENTRIES(1) AFS Command Reference PTS_LISTENTRIES(1)
NAME
pts_listentries - Displays all users or groups in the Protection Database
SYNOPSIS
pts listentries [-users] [-groups] [-cell <cell name>]
[-noauth] [-localauth] [-force] [-help]
pts liste [-u] [-g] [-c <cell name>] [-n] [-l]
[-f] [-h]
DESCRIPTION
The pts listentries command displays the name and AFS ID of all Protection Database entries of the indicated type. It also displays the AFS
ID of each entry's owner and creator.
To display all user and machine entries, either include the -users flag or omit both it and the -groups flag. To display all group
entries, include the -groups flag. To display all entries, provide both flags.
OPTIONS
-users
Displays user and machine entries.
-groups
Displays group entries.
-cell <cell name>
Names the cell in which to run the command. For more details, see pts(1).
-force
Enables the command to continue executing as far as possible when errors or other problems occur, rather than halting execution at the
first error.
-help
Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are ignored.
-localauth
Constructs a server ticket using a key from the local /etc/openafs/server/KeyFile file. Do not combine this flag with the -cell or
-noauth options. For more details, see pts(1).
-noauth
Assigns the unprivileged identity anonymous to the issuer. For more details, see pts(1).
OUTPUT
The output includes a line for each entry, with information in four columns that have the following headers:
Name
The entry's name.
ID The entry's AFS ID (AFS UID for a user or machine, negative AFS GID for a group).
Owner
The AFS ID of the user or group that owns the entry.
Creator
The AFS ID of the user who created the entry (the system:administrators group is listed as the creator of the entry for "anonymous" and
the system groups, but it is not otherwise possible for a group to create groups).
In general, the entries appear in the order in which they were created.
EXAMPLES
The following example displays both user and group entries.
% pts listentries -users -groups
Name ID Owner Creator
system:administrators -204 -204 -204
system:anyuser -101 -204 -204
system:authuser -102 -204 -204
anonymous 32766 -204 -204
admin 1 -204 32766
pat 100 -204 1
smith 101 -204 1
pat:friends -206 100 100
staff -207 -204 1
PRIVILEGE REQUIRED
The issuer must belong to the system:administrators group.
