In Zope itself you do not assign permissions directly to individual users  
rather to roles. There are extensions which allow groups and Plone  
includes groups.

Yes, but not with Gadfly. Zope has it's own object oriented database which  
is usually sufficient for most things. If you wish to integrate Zope with  
an external database for user management then you need to look at PAS  
(Pluggable Authentication Service) or exUserFolder.

Based on the information you've given us so far we can't do much. It is  
not clear whether you actually need to work with an external data system.  
If you only need to divide your users into groups then the user management  
in Plone should be sufficient. Look at the Plone Control Panel.

And please try to use some of the abundant documentation on these topics.
