if you're running 5.2, there is pam for aix now. what i did on my 4.3.3 systems was write a perl script to populate my map sources from ldap and just authenticate via nis on the boxes that wouldn't do ldap. but it was all backed by ldap

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,
