If all you want to do is execute a command under the GUEST account AND
this does not need to be done interactively, then the simple solution
is to submit a batch job with /USER=GUEST on the SUBMIT command.  This
will cause the batch job to run under the GUEST account exactly as if
user GUEST had submitted the batch job him/herself.
