Hi All,
I have 2 windows-2000 advance server DC in my organization into seperate network, and i want
to establish trust relationship between both of this, when i am adding
Trusted domain name and clicks on Add button it gives me an error that
"The RPC Server is Unavailable" but in Services RPC Service is Started
in both the servers.
so how can i start this RPC Server now.... ????
- Trust relationship on the same network works great. My firewall is wide open for these two network that needs to have trust relationships.
Thanks in advance!
Allen

to solv your problem you need to folow a step by
step checking :
1. run nslookup from one dc and look for the othe domain dc .
2.if o.k try ping or tracert command to the name or ipaddress.
3.if o.k check at the firewall configuration as far as i know firewalls block rpc trafic so u propebly will have to publish the server at the firewall.( external address - rpc server rule - internal address of the dc ) .
