Joining two windows AD domains
How do I joing a server to two different domains? I've seen servers with more than one domain in it's drop down at the login screen but can you join two different domains or is it a forest trust that has to be setup?
you can't join the computer to more than one domain. the domain you saw are the other domains in your forest. ( root domain and its child domains)
You are correct you cannot join single machine to multiple domain.The multiple domain is available on client computer at logon when forest trust,child domain & tree domain is configured in the forest.
Hope this helps

do you know of a good set of step by step instructions for configuring that? If I had a sql server that was setup this way could resources from both domains be able to connect to it?

If domains have any trust then users from multiple domain can be logged in & services of server can be shared in any domain in a forest if that product allows.
