I am running a NT4.0 domain that has a trust with a
Windows 2000 domain. I am being told that if I install a
firewall on the NT4.0 domains it will break the trust. Is
there a way to do this and still keep the truct. One idea
was to move the PDC outside of the firewall but that
defeats the firewall purpose.
 
You just need to make sure that you have specifc ports
open to pass needed server replication info.

Here's a knowledge base article that discusses just this
point.

So you know it works. I have a mixed-mode domain
consisting of a little under 100 advanced servers and 25
left over 4.0 boxes. They are spread out over 30 office
internationally and I use firewalls and routers in each
case.

Have fun...
