We have two networks in our company with separate but trusting domains. I have one XP system that will need to login to either domain at any given time. How can I accomplish this without having to remove it from each domain and adding it to the other every time I want to change domains?

Assuming the trust relationships were set up properly and are operational, there should be no real need to physically log on to multiple networks. The domain controller on the second network will recognize the log-on credentials supplied when logging on to the first network as being valid. This will allow the user (or users) of the XP system to access the second network. However, the domain admin for the second network still needs to give specific access privileges to specific resources in his domain to the users from the first domain.

Hope this helps.
