Hello PhilTeale,
On WAN DC, what is the DNS server 172.74.15.2? This is not the WAN DCand also from another subnet, but should be the WAN DC. Also do not use the loopback address 127.0.0.1 use the real ip address the server has.
Loopback address on the LAN change also.
Best regards
Meinolf Weber

Hi
The WAN domain controller and the LAN domain controller are on the
same physical site. They are connected via Ethernet and it's one hop
across a Cisco router from one to the other. The other WAN domain
controllers are connected via Ethernet presented from an SDH fibre
ring.

It's in Italian, but I guess you can work out the important bits :-)

Hello PhilTeale,
How did you connect the domains? Can you also post and unedited
ipconfig /all from both.

Hi Meinolf
Thanks for your reply.
We would love to rename the domain, but unfortunately it is not
under our control.
I have followed the steps in the document you linked to, and
although the secondary zones work, we still have the same problem;
we cannot ping the "domain" or "domain." domains from the WAN
domain.
nslookup of "domain." on the WAN domain does resolve to the domain
controller on the LAN domain, but still the AD Trust Wizard fails on
the WAN domain because it is not able to contact the LAN domain.
Do you have any other ideas?
Cheers

Hello PhilTeale,
See here for DNS setup for a trust:

Also your domain names should look like "domain.local" instead of
using single lable domain names like domain. See here:

Did you ever thought about renaming the domain?

Hi
I am trying to establish a trust from a WAN domain to a domain on
a LAN. Network connectivity is established and confirmed.
The problem I am experiencing is that I cannot ping the domain
name from the domain on the WAN. I have configured forwarders on
the WAN DNS and can ping individual servers on the LAN domain, but
not the domain name itself.
Eg. I can ping server1.contoso. but not contoso. itself
(To complicate matters, the LAN domain does not use RFC compliant
naming; it is called "contoso" (or "contso.", I am not sure of the
difference). I don't think that it is a problem as both are AD
domains, but I thought it best to point out.)
I suspect the problem is actually with the LAN domain itself, as
when I log onto the domain controller server.contoso. I cannot
ping either "contoso" or "contoso."
My question is, what records need to be present in DNS to allow me
to ping the domain name from the domain controller? In all our
other domains, we can ping the domain name, eg example.com or
example.zone.
If run nslookup on the LAN domain controller ("server1.contoso")
and enter "contso" it returns non-existant domain, however if I
enter "contso." then it returns the IP address of the DNS server.
This demonstrates that DNS is somewhat working.
I understand that we will not be able to establish the trust until
both servers can contact a domain controller on the other domain
by resolving the domain name.
I hope someone is able to help.
Regards
Phil
