Creating a Domain Trust between Forests


i have 2 domain forests. 1 resides in office in us. other in office in uk. users in uk able authenticate , access resources in forest , authenticate , access resources in uk forest. both networks not connected.

my questions:

would able create trust between 2 forests or misunderstanding whole trusts relationship concept?

if can create trust, need connection between 2 forests in order replicate ad related data , forth between 2 forests?


thanks, andrew

your understanding correct.

you need connectivity between 2 forests. port requirements listed in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/179442 . however, there no ad replication between trusted forests (replication limited domain controllers within same forest).

to create forst trust, follow http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc770907.aspx
