Hi fsze88,

How can get the client user name by c# code?

Please try :

WindowsIdentity identity = HttpContext.Current.Request.LogonUserIdentity;

and then you can get the information about the user like identity.Name.

How can set the permission for each of client(endusers)?

Do you mean you want to retrieve all the roles (groups) a user is a member of  ? If yes , you could refer to below links :
