Unable to pass-through authentication

Our company runs two domains with multiple terminal
servers (both ICA and RDP). All of the terminal servers
are members of domain A. Most of the workstations are
members of domain B, with a two-way trust relationship
between the domains. On the Win2K terminal servers (works
fine with NT4) using either the TS or ICA client, I am
unable to pass-through authentication from workstations in
domain B to the terminal servers in domain A. I get an
error message stating the system could not log me on, but
after clicking ok get the login prompt and can login with
the exact same credentials as I tried to pass-through from
domain B. I've checked the obvious things like always
prompt for password (its disabled), but think it has
something to do with the way Win2k handles authentication
requests from members of other domains? It seems to want
domain B selected from the dropdown list of domains. Any
help in getting it to pass-through the authentication
without bringing up the login prompt would be greatly
appreciated.
 
Domain A is an NT4 domain and domain B is 2000 AD.

It just seems to be an issue of domain B not being the
default domain selection from the drop down box at the
login prompt. NT4 terminal servers have no problem
passing authentication credentials on login from domain B,
its just the Win2k terminal servers that can't.

WINS is replicated between the PDC's for both domains, DNS
is not.
 
For anyone following this thread...

All Win2K TS' with SP4 have no problem passing
authentication.
