Trust between 2000 and 2003

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.win2000.active_directory (More info?)

I''m having a problem with a trust relationship between Wndows 2003(SP1) and
Windows 2000 (SP4). Does anyone have a resolution? My Windows 2000 domain
can't see the windows 2003 domain. They get a message no logon server
available. They both are running DNS for there own domain. Both having a
primary of itself and secondary is opposite domain controllers.
They are both on the same segment.

When I try to validate from the 2003 server to the 2000 server I get the
following error message: Windows cannot find a domain controller for the
DC-M.com domain. Verify that a DC is available and then try again.
I had it working and it just stopped.

Please help

Or, you can use lmhosts files. Just make sure that the files are
'formatted' properly. Have not done any WIN2000 - WIN2003 trusts just yet.
Have for several WINNT 4.0 - WIN2000, though. I always use netdom - a
utility from the Support Tools to do this.
