Trust problem

S

Scott Micale

I am trying to map a drive from a DC in xx.zz.com to a share in yy.zz.com.
I keep getting this error.
"The mapped network drive could not be created because the following error
occurred: The trust relationship between the primary domain and the trusted
domain failed." I have looked at my Users and Computers Domains and trusts
and it seems the trusts are created, but I can't validate them. yy.zz.com
is a Win2k3 server. xx.zz.com is a Win2k server.
 
S

Scott Micale

I can map a drive to my root dc in the zz.com domain. Not sure if that
helps at all.
 
S

Scott Micale

I have been able to remove the trust that is there in the xx.zz.com domain
on the win2k server. However I can't delete the trust in the yy.zz.com dc.
Keeps giving me a "Parameter is incorrect error". Is there another way to
delete this trust so that I can recreate it?

Make sure that you have netbios name resolution between the domains for inter forest
trusts involving W2K A good way is to have the wins servers in each forest
replicating to the wins servers in the other forest and domain controllers need to be
wins clients also. Make sure that in the Domain Controller Security Policy that the
security option for additional restrictions for anonymous connections is not set to "
no access without explicit anonymous permissions" which can cause problems setting up
trusts. You might also want to post in the win2000.active_directory newsgroup. ---

I am not running WINS anywhere. I can ping both ways by IP, netbios names,
and FQDN. both domains are in the same forest.
 
S

Scott Micale

I am not familiar with the Domain Controller Security Policy. Can you
explain this more and tell me where to look to see if this needs changed?
 
S

Scott Micale

I think I found that setting you are talking about. Under Security
setting --> Local Policies ---> Security Options. I have Additional
restrictions for anonymous connections set to "Not defined"

If these are both W2K domains in the same forests then trusts are setup automatically
and use dns and kerberos. From your description it sounds as if you have separate
domain trees. I would run first netdiag and then dcdiag on each domain controller
looking for any failed tests/errors/warnings that may give a clue. These tools are
located on the install disk in the support tools folder where you have to run the
setup program there. You may have general dns name resolution but possibly a problem
with the domain controllers and their _srv records existing or replication between
domains. I have not used a forest with separate trees. The guys/gals in the
win2000.active_directory newsgroup could probably give you more ideas as to specific
dns issues and such. --- Steve

These are all in one forest. I have a Win2k3 root server with 2 child
domains. One of the child domains is a win2k3 server and the other is a
win2k server. The two child domains are the ones having the problems
creating the trusts between them. Should I still run those utilities you
spoke of?
 
S

Steven L Umbach

Hi Sott.

Yes I would. There is no harm in doing so. So it is one tree and with two child
domains that can not access each other. Hmm. I still think it may be dns related.
Also ipsec policies implemented in a domain can cause disruption domain trusts. I am
not totally up to speed with W2003 yet [sorry]. You might want to review the
procedures for child domains and dns as explained in the KB below. -- Steve

I am not having connectivity problems among domains, I can ping both ways,
but I do think as well it is a DNS issue. I ran dcdiag on all three DC's
and this is what I got. Not sure what to make of these errors, but I have
noticed in my win2k DC that the entry in the _msdcs.hrm.lan zone I am
missing some aliases to the other DNS servers.
Ok, I am not sure what is going on here. I didn't run that one utility yet,
but did try this on the win2k dc harttool in ht.hrm.lan and got this info:

Hi Scott.

Yes it seems you have at least a dns issue which needs to be corrected first. I see
you posted in the win2000.dns newsgroup. You should get excellent response over
there. I will watch over there and chime in if I think I have anything to add. ---

Hi Sott.

Yes I would. There is no harm in doing so. So it is one tree and with two child
domains that can not access each other. Hmm. I still think it may be dns related.
Also ipsec policies implemented in a domain can cause disruption domain trusts. I am
not totally up to speed with W2003 yet [sorry]. You might want to review the
procedures for child domains and dns as explained in the KB below. -- Steve

spoke of?


If these are both W2K domains in the same forests then trusts are setup
automatically
and use dns and kerberos. From your description it sounds as if you have
separate
domain trees. I would run first netdiag and then dcdiag on each domain
controller
looking for any failed tests/errors/warnings that may give a clue. These
tools are
located on the install disk in the support tools folder where you have to
run the
setup program there. You may have general dns name resolution but possibly
a problem
with the domain controllers and their _srv records existing or replication
between
domains. I have not used a forest with separate trees. The guys/gals in
the
win2000.active_directory newsgroup could probably give you more ideas as
to specific
dns issues and such. --- Steve


I am not running WINS anywhere. I can ping both ways by IP, netbios
names,
and FQDN. both domains are in the same forest.

Make sure that you have netbios name resolution between the domains for
inter forest
trusts involving W2K A good way is to have the wins servers in each
forest
replicating to the wins servers in the other forest and domain
controllers
need to be
wins clients also. Make sure that in the Domain Controller Security
Policy that the
security option for additional restrictions for anonymous connections
is
not set to "
no access without explicit anonymous permissions" which can cause
problems
setting up
trusts. You might also want to post in the win2000.active_directory
newsgroup. ---

I can map a drive to my root dc in the zz.com domain. Not sure if
that
helps at all.


I am trying to map a drive from a DC in xx.zz.com to a share in
yy.zz.com.
I keep getting this error.
"The mapped network drive could not be created because the following
error
occurred: The trust relationship between the primary domain and the
trusted
domain failed." I have looked at my Users and Computers Domains and
trusts
and it seems the trusts are created, but I can't validate them.
yy.zz.com
is a Win2k3 server. xx.zz.com is a Win2k server.

ok, thanks!

Hi Scott.

Yes it seems you have at least a dns issue which needs to be corrected first. I see
you posted in the win2000.dns newsgroup. You should get excellent response over
there. I will watch over there and chime in if I think I have anything to add. ---

I am not having connectivity problems among domains, I can ping both ways,
but I do think as well it is a DNS issue. I ran dcdiag on all three DC's
and this is what I got. Not sure what to make of these errors, but I have
noticed in my win2k DC that the entry in the _msdcs.hrm.lan zone I am
missing some aliases to the other DNS servers.
Ok, I am not sure what is going on here. I didn't run that one utility yet,
but did try this on the win2k dc harttool in ht.hrm.lan and got this info:

for
inter forest
trusts involving W2K A good way is to have the wins servers in each
forest
replicating to the wins servers in the other forest and domain
controllers
need to be
wins clients also. Make sure that in the Domain Controller Security
Policy that the
security option for additional restrictions for anonymous connections
is
not set to "
no access without explicit anonymous permissions" which can cause
problems
setting up
trusts. You might also want to post in the win2000.active_directory
newsgroup. ---

I can map a drive to my root dc in the zz.com domain. Not sure if
that
helps at all.


I am trying to map a drive from a DC in xx.zz.com to a share in
yy.zz.com.
I keep getting this error.
"The mapped network drive could not be created because the following
error
occurred: The trust relationship between the primary domain
and
the
trusted
domain failed." I have looked at my Users and Computers
Domains
and
trusts
and it seems the trusts are created, but I can't validate them.
yy.zz.com
is a Win2k3 server. xx.zz.com is a Win2k server.
