I suggest using an LDAP directory that can do proxy operations or proxy
authentications. You might consider 389 and sync in some user accounts
and groups while using pam passtrough capabilities. I think recent
upstream versions of 389 made this configuration possible but you need
to check with them. #389 on freenode is your best bet. 
Openldap has some capabilities that might be of the value here too.

I am not quite sure what you are trying to accomplish here so a bit more
details would be helpful.
