DNS Across two domains
Dear All,
I've recently setup a two-way trust between two completely seperate Active Directory domains.
Both have AD intergrated DNS zones and both are obviously running their own DNS Servers.
What is the best/correct way to enable DNS resolution between the domains? Do I setup a secondary to each DNS zone on the 'other' DNS server? Anything I need to bear in mind in relation to permissions?
Any help/pointers to usefull examples/documents gratefullyreceived

you can load a secondary zone if you wish or you can add the remote DNS server as forwarder, or you can point to it as a secondary server
I would either do a secondary or stub zones.

Thanks Jay_Jay and brw.
JJ - I know which options are available but which would you choose and is there a 'microsoft' recommended method? I've looked but can't find one.
Also, BRW I think stub zones are only available in 2003 AD?
Looks like 'secondary' zonemay be the way to go....is it just the same method to create a secondary to an AD intergrated zone as it id to a standard?
Thanks again for your advices.
