Log into two different domains

The user's PC will be a member of your domain and the user will login normally.
When they open a connection on the vendor's lan, with either a mapped drive or NET USE, or whatever, when the username password box pops up, have them enter
Username: VENDORDOMAIN\username
Password: password

This will allow them to have all the normal connections to the local lan and still independently access vendor lan servers.

I will setup a one way trust relation between the two domain where the vendor domain trust your native domain, create a group on the vendor domain (clients) and create an account for your user in the vendor domain and make him part of the "client" group. Name the user account on the vendor domain the same way as the user account on your domain, or viceversa, and the same password.
This way when your user is login on into your domain, all the drive mapping made on the vendor domain will be active.
Hope this will help, Chris.

Hi jfb1126

See this is not possible to logon 2 domains at a same time.But you do one thing just create your account on both computer.I have 2 domains in my organization and both are windows nt.I have same user name like narendrak on both machine i.e means in domains.so here idia is when you will logon to any domain resources are verified automatically.So good thing is you will get both machines resources on same network.

If you have any doubts please tell me.

Thank You

Narendra

Check out this program:

http://www.netswitcher.com/product_info.htm

It is a great little shareware program that takes a snap shot of each of your network settings and allows you to switch between them easily as you boot.

Suppose your user is logging into Domain A and you need to access resources on Domain B.  You set up either a one-way trust where Domain B trusts Domain A, or a two-way trust if Domain B's users will need some kind of access to Domain A as well.  (If you need help setting up trusts, let us know...)  You would then put the Domain A users who need to access the Domain B resources into a global group on Domain A.  On Domain B, create or modify the local group that has access to the resource, and add Domain A's global group (either by typing DomainA\GlobalGroup or by selecting Domain A from the drop-down list of domains and then double-clicking the group.)  

Oh my goodness thats WAY too much work to solve that problem. Go buy that program hehehe.

The mapped drive seems to work, however I now have a different problem.  If I login as an administrator all is well, but when I login with a user account the application errors out.

Check the privs of the user account that you are using :)

As per request, thier will be a two way split with one accepted here at the question, and will create one for the other Expert.

isabull=100
lrmoore=100

I will accept isabull here, and post another question in this TA for lrmoore.

Kind regards,
