Hmm Domain A is W2K and Domain B is NT 4.0? Really no probs here, you can set up trusts just like the old days DOH just got pulled for some work, if you dont know how to set up trusts hollar back and ill get with ya.

Dont be afraid to share what you know. There are no losers in our arena, only self rightous monkeys atop their own tree.

Sounds like you should be OK, if you want to get your hands on a nice Document. Go to

http://www.microsoft.com/technet

and search for the "cookbook" the file is actually cookbook.exe its a complete guide on performing NT4 to 2k Migrations. There is a lot of helpful stuff. It will have info on trust relations also. like the post above, you should not have any problems with trusts. Maybe you are missing something simple?

Everything is fine, except when i add the domain in nt 4.0, it cannot find the domain controller, i have tried everything such as wins lmhosts, everything, please help, this issue is not being resolved, any suggestions, i can find the domain in network neighborhood and can pick the host name..thanks

also is this suppose to be done with mixed mode or native mode..thanks

This MUST be done in mixed mode. If your 2000 domain is in native mode, it will no longer communicate with NT 4 PDC/BDC.
