Re: No logon server available - Windows 2003 Trust Issue? NS Issue?

Since these are W2k3 domains you should be able to use DNS
to get them communicating properly. Add the remote DNS servers
as secondary DNS servers on each W2k3 DC.

THanks for any input ahead of time...

I have 2 - Windows 2003 R2 Domains with a two way trust set up.

Domain A

Windows Firewall - turned off
LMHOST Entries

DC IP x.x.x.x DCHostName #PRE #DOM: "DomainBName
DC IP x.x.x.x "DomainBNAME \0x1b" #PRE


Domain B

Windows Firewall - turned off
LMHOST Entries

DC IP x.x.x.x DCHostName #PRE #DOM: "DomainAName
DC IP x.x.x.x "DomainANAME \0x1b" #PRE


Trust created fine

Domain A tries to access shared folder on Domain B - I get auth box
- which is good. Once I assign NTFS and Share permissions, that will
go away.


Domain B tries to access shared folder on Domain A - I get following

<error>

\\dcname\test is not accessible. You might not have permission to use
this network
resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you
have access
permissions.

There are currently no logon servers available to service this logon
request.

</error>

I have read alot of Q articles and alot of post regarding this error,
and it mostly relates to name resolution. I have verified my entries
on both domain controllers. I can ping back and forth using wins name.
I have added DC entries in WINS just to make sure... shouldn't have
to if they are in lmhost.

I have run nslookup on both servers to verify what it sees as the name
server for each domain.

I cant see to figure out what is going on - I ran a sniff on the port
for DC B while trying to access DC A and do not see anything out of the
ordinary...

Any thoughts?
