Forest trust between 2000 forest and 2003 forest.

Hi guy's ! Im having trouble with forest trust ..so here is my situation...

domain... PDC A is a W2k server forest raised in 2000 native mode... and PDC
B is a W2k3 server forest raised in 2003 server mode.... i need to give a 2
way trust so i can do the migration of my 2000 AD to my 2003 AD .... im havin
few problem when it come to make the trust.. they ccan verify the trust...

thx a lot

 

You can only create forest trusts between fully functional 2003 forest
root-domain controllers.

If you have a 2000 forest, you will need to create separate external trusts
for each domain in that forest to each domain in the 2003 forest.

If you're having difficulty creating the trusts the most likely problem is
name resolution. In this case, each domain needs to be able to resolve the
other domain's SRV records. One way of achieving this is for a DNS server
in one domain to host a secondary copy of the other domain's DNS zone.

For example, you have two domains A and B. A should hold a (secondary) copy
of Bs DNS domain, and B should hold a (secondary) copy of As DNS domain.
