My original question is:
=========================================
I am sorry I have so simple question:

How can I assign priviledges to some users in Digital UNIX? I can do it in
VMS, but in Unix, there is a difference concept about assign priviledge.
Any suggestions?
==============================

Many thanks to following friends give me below 3 solutions:

1. Steve Gibbons <steve_at_wyrm.AZTech.Net>, let me "have a lot of
reading/learning ahead of you...". Yes, certainly I will.

2. Trying some certain utilities, such as:
    *Priv* (bchill_at_bch.net)
       ftp://pub/unix/priv.tar.gz
    *sudo* (MC.Vialatte_at_cust.univ-pclermont.fr,
            freis_at_santix.de,
            stan_at_thunder.ocis.temple.edu
            Casey Spangler <spang_at_probita.com>
            George Guethlein <GGuethlein_at_GiantOfMaryland.com>)
       http://www.courtesan.com/courtesan/products/sudo/
3. Set the group permission to be executeable by members of a specific
group, set the owner permission to be setuid root and remove the world execute
permission. Then, for the people that need access to the feature, you put
them in the group.

Many thanks again.
