Had a similar problem but never found a working solution -- I was trying to
get win2000 server to authenticate terminal services users via a unix LDAP
server. I could interrogate LDAP from the 2k box (cmd prompt) but could
never get the active directory to authenticate users (or even see the LDAP
server). Anyone shed any light?

Are you trying to log in the users into the unix servers but can't?
I'm working on integrating HP-UX servers with Windows 2000 AD, and I've
noticed that once I've migrated the unix directory entries (/etc/passwd
entries) over to AD, I have to reset the password of each user (in AD) and
enable
their accounts before they can log into the HP-UX servers. I also changed
the /etc/pam.conf file by specifying authentication to use pamlib_ldap, in
addition to the pamlib_unix.
I'm not sure if this applies to your question, but I hope this helps.
