ADMT Migration Issue

[Jane Doe]

Having a problem migrating users and computers from one forest to another.
Have two forests, domA.com and domB.com. domA is trusting and trusted by
domB, and domB is trusting and trusted by domA. Trust looks good. I can
verify the trust, and wins servers are replicating. Both DC's are in an
lmhosts file on both DC's. I have the DNS secondary foreword lookup zones
in each domain (domA has domB SLZ and domB has domA SLZ). I can access any
PC or server from both domains, but when I run ADMT I get the following
error: "The server is not operational. (Error code=8250 Domain=domB)"

This happens when I try to migrate an account from domA to domB and also
when I try to do the same migrating from domB to domA. The source domain
should be domA and the target domain needs to be domB. I have tried a
migration from a third domain domC to domB and migration works fine. Can
anyone help me out on this?

Can we get more details about the migration?
Where did you run the ADMT? What's the full error message? Can you post the
migration.log?
Are you running ADMT v2?
Do you follow the article to set up the environment?
