Usually, you'd use a flag or secondary table related to each user to indicate what "rights" the user has. For instance, if using bit flags, you might have an extra field in your user table called IsAdmin, which would contain true if it's an administrative user, false if not.

Then, once the user has logged in and you've validated the password, you can check the IsAdmin field, and if true, allow them access to the appropriate functions.

that's a simplistic method but it would work. You normally WOULD NOT want to base rights solely on the user's name.
