Windows 2000 single label domain problem

  • Thread starter Thread starter Gregg Hill
  • Start date Start date
Well, the trust worked fine going from a computer joined to the 2008 domain
to access the 2000 domain, but going from a computer joined to the 2000
domain to access files on the 2008 server fails and gets a login prompt. I
am fine with that, as I only need to have the new computers access the old
server until I can get all the new ones up and running while we wait for one
last program to be Win 7 64-bit compatible, which should be soon.

So I am good!

Gregg's pet peeves:

First of all, what does a peeve look like, and why would anyone want one as
a pet?

Peeve #1: Apostrophes: when in doubt, leave them out! You will be correct
more often than not.

Its = Belonging to it. For example, "Look at the sky. Its color is blue."
It's = It is. For example, "It's hot today."
It's = It has. For example, "It's been nice talking to you."
Its' = completely incorrect usage. Stop it!


Peeve #2: Your vs. You're
"Your" means belonging to you, as in, "It's your truck."
"You're" means "You are." Example, you're probably about ready to throttle
me for this peeve!

Hmm, well at least communications is working across the trust. I assume you've cross-added the Domain Admins and Domain Users group to their respective counterparts on the other side and vice-versa?

NO. I just left it where the Server 2008 had created the trust between the
two. I never looked to see what it actually did.

Sorry, not SHOUTING, just fat-fingered the first word!

I didn't think you were. I do that, too. As for the cross-domain group adds, that's all manual, but I think you already knew that. :)

Heck, I haven't done a just since NT 4 about nine years ago...and forget
everything needed!

Well, there I go again! Can't type to save my life!

I meant that I have not done a "trust" in nine years...and "forgot"
everything needed.

Oh, ok. After doing a trust, and it's expected that both sides will be accessing various resources on the other side, including administration, the mindset is to usually add domain1's Domain Administrators group to domain2's domain local Administrators group, and domain1's Domain Users to domain2's domain local Users group, and vice versa.

I hope that helps. :-)

Well, the 2008 domain admins and domain users can access the 2000 domain's
resources, but not the other way around. I just assumed it was due to the
2000 having a single-label domain. I'll check the settings on users and
groups next week.

Domain based trusts do not use DNS, so the single lable name wouldn't be the problem. It could be WINS is not setup properly between the two sides? Did you click on Validate trusts to insure the trusts are actually communicating?

Ace
 
WINS works fine on both domains, and when I ran the 2008 wizard to create
the trust, it said it was working for both directions.

I'm not worried about it, because I really only need it to work for 2008
domain members to get to the 2000 domain until it goes away.

Ok, no problem, then. But I would be curious to get that working, you know, more out of a curiosity as to why it's not working in one direction. But if you don't need it, that's cool, too.
