   I would like to have one admin who has access to all backend controls. I would also like to have several other users who can only make posts. How can I do this?

   Thanks,
   BP

   See Roles and Capabilities - Summary of Roles

   Make one person the Admin and make the rest Authors should do it.

   Hi,

   Also check with these plugins:

   http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/user-access-manager/

   Thanks,

   FYI, you have no need of those plugins for basic admin/author as you're describing it. If you other specific requirements, though, you may. Personally, for a multi-author blog, I've never needed a user management plugin. (And the first link Shane gave you is the same one I linked to. It's not a plugin, it's a codex link).
