SME Server does not provide Active Directory functionality. It provides NT4 style domain functions, which is from the pre Active Directory era. Creating an ODBC should not be related to this. Apart from that you do not tell us what the error is wand what steps you executed that resulted in the error.
Be careful whose advice you buy, but be patient with those who supply it. Advice is a form of nostalgia, dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than its worth ~ Baz Luhrmann - Everybody's Free (To Wear Sunscreen)

I guess you are trying to create an odbc entry onyour windows server, aren't you?

if so, if you are logged on windows as administrator you should not have any problem..
anyway, there's nothing SME is involved in
