I am not having connectivity problems among domains, I can ping both ways,
but I do think as well it is a DNS issue. I ran dcdiag on all three DC's
and this is what I got. Not sure what to make of these errors, but I have
noticed in my win2k DC that the entry in the _msdcs.hrm.lan zone I am
missing some aliases to the other DNS servers.
Ok, I am not sure what is going on here. I didn't run that one utility yet,
but did try this on the win2k dc harttool in ht.hrm.lan and got this info:

Hi Sott.
Yes I would. There is no harm in doing so. So it is one tree and with two child
domains that can not access each other. Hmm. I still think it may be dns related.
Also ipsec policies implemented in a domain can cause disruption domain trusts. I am
not totally up to speed with W2003 yet [sorry]. You might want to review the
procedures for child domains and dns as explained in the KB below. -- Steve

These are all in one forest. I have a Win2k3 root server with 2 child
domains. One of the child domains is a win2k3 server and the other is a
win2k server. The two child domains are the ones having the problems
creating the trusts between them. Should I still run those utilities you
spoke of?
If these are both W2K domains in the same forests then trusts are setup
automatically
and use dns and kerberos. From your description it sounds as if you have
separate
domain trees. I would run first netdiag and then dcdiag on each domain
controller
looking for any failed tests/errors/warnings that may give a clue. These
tools are
located on the install disk in the support tools folder where you have to
run the
setup program there. You may have general dns name resolution but possibly
a problem
with the domain controllers and their _srv records existing or replication
between
domains. I have not used a forest with separate trees. The guys/gals in
the
win2000.active_directory newsgroup could probably give you more ideas as
to specific
dns issues and such. --- Steve
I am not running WINS anywhere. I can ping both ways by IP, netbios
names,
and FQDN. both domains are in the same forest.
Make sure that you have netbios name resolution between the domains for
inter forest
trusts involving W2K A good way is to have the wins servers in each
forest
replicating to the wins servers in the other forest and domain
controllers
need to be
wins clients also. Make sure that in the Domain Controller Security
Policy that the
security option for additional restrictions for anonymous connections
is
not set to "
no access without explicit anonymous permissions" which can cause
problems
setting up
trusts. You might also want to post in the win2000.active_directory
newsgroup. ---

I can map a drive to my root dc in the zz.com domain. Not sure if
that
helps at all.
I am trying to map a drive from a DC in xx.zz.com to a share in
yy.zz.com.
I keep getting this error.
"The mapped network drive could not be created because the following
error
occurred: The trust relationship between the primary domain and the
trusted
domain failed." I have looked at my Users and Computers Domains and
trusts
and it seems the trusts are created, but I can't validate them.
yy.zz.com
is a Win2k3 server. xx.zz.com is a Win2k server.
