Domain Pulldown List

I have systems that routinely join domain X with a trust to domain Y. After ghosting and configuring a new system and joining it to domain X, the pull down menu will not show domain Y.
I have tried removing the machine from the domain and readding it, but the results are the same. I have also verified the WINS,DNS, and other attributes for TCP/IP. Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Can you ping a server in domain Y by name from the new machine? Does Domain Y show up in NEtwork Neighborhood on the new machine? If not, check your WINS server to make sure that there is a Domain Master Browser entry for domain Y. If there isn't, reboot the PDC/PDC Emulator in Domain Y if you have one (which you should, by default in a Win2K domain) and if you don't have one, there's your problem.
