You will need to create an AD user for that AIX machine.

Login initial with it to Windows and change the password (to any windows machine in domain), no need to load desktop.

Once you have the user operational, configure the user to it cannot change password and password never expires.

Then generate a kerberos keytab on domain controller (host keytab not HTTP) with ktpass for that user (representing your server), which you will copy as krb5.keytab to your AIX server.
Check NTP, AD and server should be in sync, or kerberos will fail to work.

Now, you should be able to do kinit user@DOMAIN to get a ticket and confirm it is working.

After that SSO should work (with putty or winscp) if user is defined on unix system and he is logged on to Windows domain.

I'm haven't worked with AIX in this regards, but this seems universal on all unix/linux systems.

NAME

       Purple - Perl extension to the libpurple instant messenger library.

SYNOPSIS

	 use Purple;

ABSTRACT

	 This module provides the interface for using perl scripts as plugins
	 in libpurple.

DESCRIPTION

       This module provides the interface for using perl scripts as plugins in Purple. With this, developers can write perl scripts that can be
       loaded in Purple as plugins. The scripts can interact with IMs, chats, accounts, the buddy list, libpurple signals, and more.

       The API for the perl interface is very similar to that of the Purple C API, which can be viewed at http://developer.pidgin.im/doxygen/ or
       in the header files in the Purple source tree.

FUNCTIONS

       @accounts = Purple::accounts
	   Returns a list of all accounts, online or offline.

       @chats = Purple::chats
	   Returns a list of all chats currently open.

       @connections = Purple::connections
	   Returns a list of all active connections.

       @conversations = Purple::conversations
	   Returns a list of all conversations, both IM and chat, currently open.

       @conv_windows = Purple::conv_windows
	   Returns a list of all conversation windows currently open.

       @ims = Purple::ims
	   Returns a list of all instant messages currently open.
