Trust issue

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry



Hello!! I have the following error when I try to validate a trust between 2
domains:
"Information from the primary domain controller for the domain xxxxx cannot
be obtained because: Access denied. Make sure that the pdc is operating
properly and then try again".

All my servers are Windows 2003 with SP1 (Except one that has W2k3 without
SP1). I have a great production domain and I have set 2 additional domains
for 2 new little areas. On monday, I set a two-way external trust with one of
the new domains, and it could set, but I cannot validate it on any of two DC
of the great production domain. I can view users of the other domain to set
permissions in shared folders, but, I can´t set permissions to sharepoint and
Project Server (Those servers are in the great domain)...

Last week, I set a one-way external trust between the great domain and the
first new domain and it works fine! The only difference between 2 new
little domains is that one DC (where trust works) doesn´t have W2K3 SP1.

I didn´t add any trusted domain as a secondary DNS zone, but I have set DNS
forwarders. All Servers are in the same subnet and I can ping all DC-names
(dns and netbios name) in all sides. The great domain is compatible with
pre-2000 OS, but the 2 new domains not. The primary DC of the great domain is
a HP Itanium II (64 bits), the error appears on this DC. On the
other DC, appears a window asking for an administrator account in order to
validate the trust, but never doesn´t accept the user/password provided (the
correct user/password).

Please, help me! I couldn´t imagine that the new trust wouldn´t work,
and the three domains are in production... Thank you, very much!!
