LDAP and NIS

We are an NIS shop. Want to authenticate users via LDAP now rather than
the NIS password maps. We have a LDAP server. It is presently RedHat 9
running OpenLDAP.

Can I have users logging into AIX systems (local and remotely) using LDAP
as their only auth. method?

How do I do that? What do I switch?

If there are users who are not in the LDAP system, can I still auth those
via a much smaller NIS password map?

Thanks,
