Viewing Multiple Domains

By Kayaker ·
I have set up 2 domains at home w/ 4 clients. DC's are running W2K Srv and clients are running W2K Pro or XP.
When I look under AD, I would like to see both domains - is this possible.
I can see all under Network Places, but would like to be able to manage both domains, computers and users from 1 machine.
Please advise. I know this should be easy for me, but I have yet to see any thing on the MMC to point me in the right direstion.

Thanks

Viewing Multiple Domains

by mdavis In reply to Viewing Multiple Domains

To get this functionality in W2K, you have to make both domains a member of the same forest. Unfortunately, the only way to do this is during the initial setup of the domain (during the dcpromo wizard). You'll have to uninstall one domain by running dcpromo (it will install, or uninstall a DC), reboot, and then run dcpromo again and join the same forest that the other domain is a member of. Good luck.
