Instead of setting that in Open Directory, you'll want to set up Directory Access in Tiger (10.4.x) or Directory Utility in Leopard (10.5.x) to use the Active Directory plugin to bind to the AD. If you are using Leopard, you'll want to be sure to be using 10.5.2, which was just released as an update.

There more to having a successful integration, but this is where you'll want to start looking.

ok. I will use Active Directory plugin to set up the login for my mac user with acive directory. An other solution is remove Active Directory and autenticate all users (mac and win) on Open Direcotry. Open direcotry set all homw dir and other for all users. Is the login possible of windows 2000 terminal server user on mac os x server?

You can login from a Windows client to Mac OS X Server by leveraging the PDC capabilities in Mac OS X Server. You also could look into using something like pGina which is a LDAP plugin for Windows to authenticate against a standard LDAP server, such as Open Directory. You'll have to configure that plugin though and YMMV!
