Have a look at RSA's Keon UnixControl, it can to this quite easily, along with
many other related security polices and access control features.

(http://www.rsasecurity.com/products/keon/datasheets/dskeonunixcontrol.html)

We use it extensively to control access to hundreds of unix servers. You

quiet.
