I am attempting to create a forest trust between two forests. Servers in the forests are windows 2003 and both forests are set to the forest level of windows 2003. DNS is installed in each forest. I have Created a fowarder in each forest in DNS to point to the other. However when I run the trust wizard and specify a trust between the other forest the "Forest Trust" option is not show, only the standad oneway/two way trusts.

The MS 2003 server upgade book states 30mins for the trusts lesson, I have not spent 4 1/2 hrs on it and counting!

I can load NSlookup in either forest and query the remote server name in the other forest.

Help!!!!!

Hi Glen

Thought that I had set the forest level to 2003, but I had not. Whooooops!

I now have a nice forest trust in place. (oooh I am excited) ;-)

A big thank you for this!
