external transative trusts between domains

[Guest]

I can't seem to be able to establish a external two-way transative trust between 2 domains. Trying to establish an external trasative domain going from 2000 to 2003 environment is giving me a the error: The RPC server is unavailable

I can establish trust from the 2003 into the 2000, but not from 2000 into the 2003. DNS seems to be working fine on both domains

Anyone know why this is

what do you mean by external? are you going through a firewall? If so,
this could be an rpc port mapping issue.

All the servers that I am working with at the moment are behid the firewall, so that should not be afecting it.

I can't seem to set a two-way transative trust going from the old domain to the new domain. The old domain is a 2000 forest domain and the new domain is a 2003 forest domain. External domains --meaning that the trust is going from one forest domain to the other forest, and establishing turst relations between both. I can set the trust one way - and right now it is set to trust the old domain, but I can't get it to be a transative trust -- where both of them trust each other

When trying to access a network server resource on the new domain it tells me that I do not have permission. "Access Denied" -- which makes no sense b/ I am the administrator on both of the domains

What do you mean by having rpc port mapping issues

I have also tried to get rid of the sid security on my new 2003 domain, but I have not had any success with the netdom trust comand line

I would appreciate any info. anyone might offer. Thanks in advance.
