I have two Win2K domains (.com and .local) that are not synching up.
A trust has been establish and the two domains can connect to each
other but some of the function cannot be performed. For instance you
cannot add/modify users in the trusted domain when you connect to it
from the trusting domain. I was wondering what could be causing this
and what settings if any I should be looking at. Thanks@ - Ben
Trusted domains don't "synch" up. That term is not applicable to such a
scenario.
Extrapolatin (and assuming) you mean you've created a one way or two way
trust between the two specific domains, and also keeping in mind that the
..local and .com names have nothing to do with trusts in Windows 2000 Active
Directory since trusts are NetBIOS based, then I would assume you probably
have not added the Domain Admins from DomainA (assuming that is the netBIOS
name of the .com domain is) to the local Administrators grou of DomainB
(assuming that is the NetBIOS domain name of the .local domain is), and
vice-versa, then I can see why you are having difficulty.
If my assumptions are totally incorrect and off base, please elaborate on
the steps you've taken to establish the trust and other steps afterwards,
such as adding domain admins to the local admist group of the other domain,
or any other steps you may have performed, to better assist as well as to
eliminate any further assumptions.
Thanks,
