PAM_LOGINUID(8) Linux-PAM Manual PAM_LOGINUID(8)NAME
pam_loginuid - Record user's login uid to the process attribute
SYNOPSIS
pam_loginuid.so [require_auditd]
DESCRIPTION
The pam_loginuid module sets the loginuid process attribute for the process that was authenticated. This is necessary for applications to
be correctly audited. This PAM module should only be used for entry point applications like: login, sshd, gdm, vsftpd, crond and atd. There
are probably other entry point applications besides these. You should not use it for applications like sudo or su as that defeats the
purpose by changing the loginuid to the account they just switched to.
OPTIONS
require_auditd
This option, when given, will cause this module to query the audit daemon status and deny logins if it is not running.
MODULE TYPES PROVIDED
Only the session module type is provided.
RETURN VALUES
PAM_SESSION_ERR
An error occurred during session management.
EXAMPLES
#%PAM-1.0
auth required pam_unix.so
auth required pam_nologin.so
account required pam_unix.so
password required pam_unix.so
session required pam_unix.so
session required pam_loginuid.so

I noticed that I do not have the crond daemon in my AIX box. I need to create a backup script to run nightly. Where do I find this daemon?
