Does anyone have some experience with users management from MS Access front-end ?

Is there any reason why you would not want to use
PostgreSQL user accounts for this?

Well, I want to use POstgreSQL user acounts, but would like to create new
users and put them in predefined groups through Access interface, instead of
doing it through pgAdmin, for example.

That would just be a matter of creating a user
interface (i.e. a form) to handle the user input, and
issuing appropriate SQL commands. Maybe the best way,
to preserve security, would be to handle the user
setup via a server function, with appropriate rights
granted to application administrators, who otherwise
are not database superusers. That would reduce the
opportunity for your backend setup to be compromised
by a user.
