I have a small domain at home for testing kit and a larger one at work.

I would like to plug in my work laptop into my home network for ease of use and transfering some of the work I do at home.

Is there an easy way of doing this in 2003 server?

I have tried looking into trust relationships but this always seemes to lead to a dead end.

Both networks run on dhcp so there is no problem with ip addresses or network setup. I have tested this and I can get internet access on the laptop.

any ideas would be great.

Thanks in advance.

AFAIK, no.

Domains (forests) are separate secutiry entities and as such, you can't do what you are asking.
trusts between domains is possible, but you need to check out the connectivity between the 2, and you also need netbios enabled on both for the trusts to be established....

What would be easier is maybe installing a dualboot on your laptop... ?
