The forest levels are Windows 2000
The domain levels were Windows 2000 mixed. I had this problem, so one of the
steps I did was move them to the Windows Server 2003 functional level.

I just want a two-way trust between the two domains. I haven't encountered
this error before.

Thanks for your time,

Seth

Good to hear Seth!

If you make both forests full 2003 levels, you can create a forest trust.
Pretty cool feature.

Ace

Yeah a forest trust makes all domains in both forests transitively trust
each other. Neat.

I was implying you know you can become an MVP as well. Keep up with
accurately, professionally and courteously replying to posts, and follow up
on them, and we'll see what happens.
