First off, hit your Caps Lock key and take off the all caps....it makes it hard to read and in "netiquette" it's considered yelling. As to your problem, yes, you can connect from one domain to another but you would first have to establish trust relationships between the two separate domains. More info on trusts is freely available at microsoft's web site.
