2 main differences I see with win2k server and win2003 server.<br />
<br />
When you join two domain trees together to create a forest, you can have transitive trust now. Instead of just &quot;external&quot; trust like in win2k<br />
<br />
There are &quot;trust shortcuts&quot; now. Meaning, you can make child domains from different forests trust each other. This way, it reduces the hop count (child domains do not have to travel through their parent to reach other forest's child domain).<br />
<br />
Is this correct?<br />
Great article thanks

Do external trust domains replicate between themselves<br />
What about child domain and parent domains? Do they replicate between themselves? <br />
<br />
If they do, I'm assuming I'd see the servers listed under the Sites and Services snap in?<br />

Do external trust domains replicate between themselves

Windows 2000 is an operating system for use on both client and server computers. It is the successor to Windows NT 4.0, and is the last version of Microsoft Windows to display the "Windows NT" designation. Four editions of Windows 2000 were released (Professional, Server, Advanced Server, and Datacenter Server) that shared a core set of features, including many system utilities such as the Microsoft Management Console. All versions of the operating system support NTFS 3.0, Encrypting File System, as well as basic and dynamic disk storage. The Windows 2000 Server family includes support for Active Directory services, Distributed File System and fault-redundant storage volumes.
