    Please help me, it drives me confuse...
    OS : AIX 5.3

    I want create a user let's say "Admin1" in group "AdmGrp".
    "Admin1" is an administrator for users in "StaffGrp".
    Therefore "Admin1" can create, delete, reset password, and modify any characteristics of members in "StaffGrp" only, not the other users in another group.

    Could you please explain me how to do that ?

    Thank you :)
    Yusata.

    I think the only way is to use RBAC (Role Based Access Control).
    Look for Articles at developerworks or google introducing RBAC on AIX.
    There is also a Redbook available at

    however RBAC is only available at AIX 6 version whereas mine is still 5.3.
    Is there any other way ?
