If we have two companies (one new company name and one old transitioning over).<br />
<br />
Is it possible to have two seperate login domains and users within one AD server? never mind about security concerns or best practices. This is a transition.<br />
<br />
Any comments? Thanks.<br />

Two Active Directory domains on same AD server?

In the on-premises world, Windows Server AD provides a set of identity capabilities and services, and is hugely popular (88% of Fortune 1000 and 95% of enterprises use AD). This topic includes all things Active Directory including DNS, Group Policy, DFS, troubleshooting, ADFS, and all other topics under the Microsoft AD and identity umbrella.
