+The winbind AIX identification module gets built as libnss_winbind.so in the
+nsswitch directory of the samba source. This file can be copied to
+/usr/lib/security, and the AIX naming convention would indicate that it
+should be named WINBIND. A stanza like the following:
+</para>
+
+<para><programlisting>
+WINBIND:
+ program = /usr/lib/security/WINBIND
+ options = authonly
+<programlisting></para>
+
+<para>can then be added to <filename>/usr/lib/security/methods.cfg</filename>.
+This module only supports identification, but there have been success reports
+using the standard winbind pam module for authentication. Use caution
+configuring loadable authentication modules as it is possible to make
+it impossible to logon to the system. More information about the AIX
+authentication module API can be found at
+<link url="http://publibn.boulder.ibm.com/doc_link/en_US/a_doc_lib/aixprggd/kernextc/sec_load_mod.htm"/> and more information on administering the
+modules at <link url="http://publibn.boulder.ibm.com/doc_link/en_US/a_doc_lib/aixbman/baseadmn/iandaadmin.htm"/>.
