You could use nulladm
nulladm Command
Purpose
Creates active accounting data files.
Syntax
/usr/sbin/acct/nulladm [ File ... ]
Description
The nulladm command creates the file specified by the File
parameter, gives read
(r) and write (w) permission to the file owner, and group and read (r)
permission to other users, and ensures that the file owner and
group are adm.
Various accounting shell procedures call the nulladm command. A
user with
administrative authority can use this command to set up the active
data files,
such as the /var/adm/wtmp file.
Note: You should not share accounting files among nodes in a
distributed
environment. Each node should have its own copy of the various
accounting
files.
