Hi

Thank you for the update. If I am correct, you would like to set
permissions for some accounts in the Windows Server 2003 domain from a
member server in the Windows NT domain. If so, I suggest you use the
following method.

1. Create a group in the Windows Server 2003 domain and add the accounts to
it.

2. On the member server of the Windows NT domain, use the group of the
Windows Server 2003 domain directly to set permissions. Since you have
created two-way trusts, you should have the option to do so.

If I have misunderstood your concern, please let me know your goal in
detail. As for the pes file, you need to recreate it since the target
domain is changed.

Hope this helps!

Sincerely,
