Could you not have multiple groups defined in the sugroups= field for the root account and add a group that ONLY has your backdoor account in? I'm pretty sure it is a comma separated list but I don't have access to AIX servers any more so i can't test it.
I hope that this helps,
Robin

Hi,
I need to access a user's command history. However, the dilemma is that he is logged in and so his current history is not yet flushed to .bash_history file which gets flushed when he logs out. Is there a way I can still access his most recent history?

pam_group
pam_group(8) BSD System Manager's Manual pam_group(8)
NAME
pam_group -- Group PAM module
SYNOPSIS
[service-name] function-class control-flag pam_group [options]
DESCRIPTION
The Group PAM module supports the account management function class. In terms of the function-class parameter, this is the ``account''
class.
The Group account management module permits or denies users based on their membership to a particular group (or groups) specified with the
group option. If no groups are specified the default group (``wheel'') will be used.
The following options may be passed to this account management module:
deny Reverse the meaning of the test, i.e., reject the applicant if and only if he or she is a member of the specified group. This
can be useful to exclude certain groups of users from certain services.
fail_safe If the specified group does not exist, or has no members, act as if it does exist and the applicant is a member.
group=groupname
Specify the name of the group to check. This can be a comma-separated list (i.e. ``group=admin,wheel'').
root_only Skip this module entirely if the target account is not the superuser account.
ruser Check the membership of the applicant (PAM_RUSER), rather than the target account (PAM_USER)
