I'm running W2K Server SP4 on 2 servers. Each server is currently on it's own domain and are DC's. (i.e., abc.com and abc.net) I want these to servers to communicate with each other and replicate as if they were parent/child within the same forest. I've tried to create a trust between the two however am not having any success. From what I understand W2K only supports 1 way non transitive and 2 way transitive. I'm having some issues getting 2 way working properly.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciate.

Two doamins in different forest cannot replicate between each other as the tree and schema are totally seperate. They can 'see' each other if a 2 way trust is set up so you can use users and groups in the other domain, but thats it.
