Are you giving them shell access, WebDav access, or http access?

If shell.. I don't know.  If WebDav or HTTP, why not LDAP?

I have a bunch of different groups of users that have their own web pages.  Each group has access to edit their own website via ftp using a program such as DreamWeaver, but I want our web masters to have access to all the groups, which is more then 32.

Example:

Group1:webmaster,user1,user2
Group2:webmaster,user3,user5
Group3:webmaster,user2,user6
