Audit on specific user in linux

Hi All,

Please let me how to enable user specific audit in Linux server.

Say i have specific user namely admin1,admin2,admin3 apart from the normal users, user1,2,3.....userN.
How to enable audit for users admin1,admin2 and admin3 alone.
Also please let me know, if this would have any overload on the server.
Is the overload negligible.

Thanks a lot,
Pradeep.
