Check which permissions control creation and modification of your
content objects. Usually, this is "Add portal content"
and "Modify portal content", respectively.
"FTP access" might be necessary as well.

Create a new role. Grant the above permissions to the role and
associate it with the users you want (you may need a local role
to get fine grained control).
