I have been assigned to consolidate two NT4 domains. Some users with the same name but different shares and permission exist on both domains. Strickly NT4 environment.
I have never done it before, any help would be highly appreciated.

Try doing the following
# Make a note that will all the users in each domain will be given access to share.
# if yes find out are there any users with common name in either domain.
# rename the common user names in one of the Domain.
# Establish Trust relation between the two domain.
This will certaily workout. any doubt feel free to mail me @ ariean18@yahoo.co.in

First step is to establish trust relationship between the two domains:
-Establishing a trust relationship requires two steps performed in two different domains:
First, the domain that will be the trusted domain adds a domain to its list of trusting domains.
Then, the trusting domain must add the first domain to the list of trusted domains.
-Establishing a two-way trust relationship (where each domain trusts the other) requires that both steps be performed twice, once in each domain.
About users with the same name:
If multiple domains are available, it is best if each user in the network has only one global account in only one domain, so that the user has only one password.
But it is possible to work with the two accounts with the same name in two different domains.
If you want to remove one of two accounts with the same name, I think that you must to reestablish the permissions for this account on shares from the domain where was removed this account. I?m not sure, you can try with one account, maybe the trust relationship between the domains maintains these permissions. Also you can try to set the same password for these two accounts with the same name before remove one of them.
