Hello,
Thank you for your response.
I hoped that there are another ways to do this :)
I will explore pam to try to create a module !
The audit system in its entirety is designed with the assumption that each
user has their own account. Its for this reason that all security guidance
asks that root logins be disallowed. (Root is typically a shared account and
you cannot tell who did what if root logins were allowed.)
I'm not sure of the use case. Perhaps it really doesn't matter to have an
audit trail. But without any knowledge of the problem that one common account
solves, I say that you might consider giving people different accounts and use
supplemental groups if they share documents.
