Has anyone successfully used an openldap server with AIX?

I can get a user to authenticate, and I can get the user and group maps to work,
but I can't get netgroups to work.

In particular, no matter what I put in /etc/passwd, I can't get AIX to even
query the LDAP server for netgroups.

I _can_ get netgroup data using getnetgrent().
