As others have said, it is difficult to do. However, I will point you
toward 2 prospective solutions.
Both are available at http://freshmeat.net

1. Grsecurity    is a kernel patch for 2.4 kernels. It has
a system for logging everything, including all file accesses.
This bogs down the system so much, with the logging, that 
it might not be worth it to use.

2. Bubblegum   is a c program that monitors a file's access
and logs it. Now it dosn't log the username but it does log
the pid of the process. You may be able to trace back the
owner of the process.  

Anyways, those are 2 ideas for you.
