   So I updated my pam module that allows #IBM #AIX to integrate with #FreeIPA to a much improved release.

   If there are any people who care, could they help me fix https://www.freeipa.org/page/ConfiguringAixClients by adding information on how to actually have HBAC instead of the very poor man's example in that page?

   Check it out here: https://github.com/rseabra/pam_ipahbac/releases/tag/v0.1.0

     @abbra
     I thought about that, but I think I'd rather *voice* talk with someone first. :)

     @RuiSeabra Hi Rui, thank you for your efforts on this PAM module. In our AIX test environment, I just tried freeIPA with AIX a couple of days ago - and it took me 3 whole days to get this sorted;the documentation is wrong in virtually every step. So if I can help with tests or anything else, please let me know.
     One question in advance: PAM ist not that tightly integrated into AIX as it is into Linux; will authentication also work with this PAM module for non-ssh logins, e.g. logins via console?

     Hi @flat_eric1 thank you so much for trying out my pam module. :)

     Please open issues (preferably one pretty issue) detailing what you find as wrong so I can look into it later

     It works perfectly on our local setup but, being AIX, it may always be because of some stupid particularity I'm assuming it's general and not local.

     Note: I'm not an AIX admin or expert, far from it. :)
