I'm trying to access a server I have in another domain
(Test2 domain) that is in a DMZ but for testing purposes
has all ports open on it for the short term. All the
trusts appear to be working between this domain and my
other domain (Test1) but I'm unable to do two things. I
can browse all computers on domain Test1 from domain Test2
to but not vice versa. Also the computer that is in
domain test 2 is unable to get to the internet. The
computer in domain test2 is a controller for that domain
and that is the only computer in that domain.

A "DMZ" implies a Firewall of some sort is between them. Firewalls are *not*
routers. NAT is a "one-way" thing (from trusted to untrusted) and will
prevent it from working. That probably will never work the way you want.
The proper solution is to establish a VPN link between the two Domains, or
at least between the two Domain Controllers. But any method you work out
will horribly reduce the security of having a DMZ in the first place. The
whole point of the DMZ is to isolate the two systems from each other,...when
you turn around and join them you have pretty much "undone" everything you
gained.
Also the computer that is in
domain test 2 is unable to get to the internet. The

This is the domain inside the DMZ?
An incorrect Default Gateway is the most likey cause.
