Cannot access AD Users and Computers

Perhaps it's by design but... anyway, I cannot pull-up a
list
of users and groups from any other domain besides the one
that the DC is a member of... like so:

I log into domain A's DC as domain-admin; go to AD Users
and Computers\Users, open a group such as Domain Admins,
and try to add another user from domain B - to the group -
but the screen is completely grayed out!? Now if I go to
domain B's DC and try the same thing I get the same
result....

Seems to me I have seen something about this issue - some
place - so perhaps this is real simple; a permissions
thing.

All replication is good; everything is working; 'Netdiag /
DCdiag is good... passthru authentication is working.

This is a single tree in a single forest scenario, like
so: B.A.com.

Any ideas?


TIA
 
Domain Admins is a global group, global groups can only have users from the same domain.
