how to understand Trusting and the interface used in Windows 200x server.
Dear all, recently I am learning on how trusting can be done on a Windows 2000 server domain (abc.com) and a child domain windows 2003 ( area2.abc.com).
I perform the following steps :-
Open Active Directory Domains and Trusts
Right click the parent domain and select Properties
Select the Trusts tab
A dialog box was prompted in front of me.
Can anyone explain to me how to explain, or how is the word being interpret :-
'Domain trusted by this domain (Outgoing trusts) . '
'Domain trusted by this domain (Incoming trusts) . '
The word 'This domain' refers to which domain actually ?

domain.com is where you are working for example
you want to trust domain.local for incoming authentication requests - user in domain.local should be authenticated and passed through permissions from domain.com. an incoming trust allows this, but doesnt allow the same for a user in domain.com to be trusted and authenticated in domain.local
thats where you need a two way trust to completely allow and trust both domain.com and domain.local - draw yourself a picture, it makes it easier to understand - draw a multi teired forest and plan a set of trusts using the link above
