Default Trusts?

Are there any default domain trusts in a single domain forest?

I ask because I am getting the following message: "The session setup to the
Windows NT or Windows 2000 Domain Controller for the domain OLD-DOMAIN is
not responsive. The current RPC call from Netlogon on \\TEMPDC to has been
cancelled."

When I go in and look at active directory domain and trusts and look at the
trusts for my domain I have a two way transitive shortcut trust to the same
domain name as my domain.

I am having problems figuring out where this OLD-DOMAIN reference is coming
from and wonder if it has to do with this trust.

A bit of history. I just promoted a new DC and demoted a very old NT 4.0
upgraded DC and the AD is still in mixed mode. I had tried to go straight to
a w2k3 r2 DC but it wouldn't let me because it said it couldn't contact all
the domain controllers in the forest. I have gone through and verified that
there are not any other references to any other DCs in the AD (Via going
through the procedure to manually strip out a DC from the AD).

a single domain forest does not have any intra forest trust (transitive
trusts, shortcut trust), except external or forest trust (depending on the
FFL)


do you know what TEMPDC is?

Yes, TempDC is the new DC. The old DC was in such bad shape I wanted to get
off of that load/hardware before I did any major changes so I loaded a
tempary 2k machine as a stepping stone to where I want to be on a w2k3 r2
load. I found out some more information, they did some gyrations while
updating and the \\old-domain is from the old NT 4.0 domain somehow.

Bottom line in a single domain forest, there should not be ANY trusts right?
This firms up my thoughts that the old-domain is really related to the trust
that looks like it is going to my domain name...
