I have a Domain called A.Local with its own DNS (Win2003) and it has the database for all the clients names with thier IP addresses. There is also a separate domain B.Local with its OWN DNS. They both have forwarders enries to resolve the FQDN's that are outside the network.
Now my question is how can I have computers from Domain B.Local PING domain A.Local's machines with their IP addresses. We dont have a WINS server and I dont plan to use a Host file.(Too Many machines).

Thanks
 
You could always make Domain B.Local be a secondary DNS zone for Domain A.Local.
This way all clients in Domain B.Local can easily resolve and ping clients in Domain A.Local
