Accessing files on AIX system from Linux system
I have a following requirement in production
system 1 : LINUX
User: abcd
system 2: AIX (it is hosting a production DB)
Requirement
user abcd from system 1 should have read access on archive log files created by DB on system 2. The log files are created with permissions 540 by user ora , group oracle. The log files are not getting created on a shared drive, it is a physical drive on system 2.
The requirement is just to read the log files and not change anything in them.
Following options are ruled out:
1. Shipping files from System 2 to system 1. There is a utility trying to read those file, won't get access for shipping.
2. Creating same user abcd on system 2 and make it part of system 1.
Note: the two systems are on the same network
can someone help on this ?

auditd
AUDITD(8) BSD System Manager's Manual AUDITD(8)
NAME
auditd -- audit log management daemon
SYNOPSIS
auditd [-d | -l]
DESCRIPTION
The auditd daemon responds to requests from the audit(8) utility and notifications from the kernel. It manages the resulting audit log files
and specified log file locations.
The options are as follows:
-d Starts the daemon in debug mode -- it will not daemonize.
-l This option is for when auditd is configured to start on-demand using launchd(8).
Optionally, the audit review group "audit" may be created. Non-privileged users that are members of this group may read the audit trail log
files.
NOTE
To assure uninterrupted audit support, the auditd daemon should not be started and stopped manually. Instead, the audit(8) command should be
used to inform the daemon to change state/configuration after altering the audit_control file.
If auditd is started on-demand by launchd(8) then auditing should only be started and stopped with audit(8).
On Mac OS X, auditd uses the asl(3) API for writing system log messages. Therefore, only the audit administrator and members of the audit
review group will be able to read the system log entries.
FILES
/var/audit Default directory for storing audit log files.
/etc/security The directory containing the auditing configuration files audit_class(5), audit_control(5), audit_event(5), and audit_warn(5).
COMPATIBILITY
The historical -h and -s flags are now configured using audit_control(5) policy flags ahlt and cnt, and are no longer available as arguments
to auditd.
SEE ALSO
asl(3), libauditd(3), audit(4), audit_class(5), audit_control(5), audit_event(5), audit_warn(5), audit(8), launchd(8)
HISTORY
The OpenBSM implementation was created by McAfee Research, the security division of McAfee Inc., under contract to Apple Computer Inc. in
2004. It was subsequently adopted by the TrustedBSD Project as the foundation for the OpenBSM distribution.
