I don't see what you did that clobbered .profile. Or do you mean that the aliases inside the .profile are not visible within the script session? That's because aliases are not inherited from the environment -- they are read on entry to an interactive shell. script sessions aren't considered interactive because (I think) the output is sent to another program (ie, script). In order to make your aliases usable, you should put them in .bashrc or .kshrc (depending on your shell).
Oh, in case you are trying to implement some security system for hackers so you can monitor their activity, search for "honeypot", the name given to such mechanisms. You might find something out there that you can cater to your needs.
