Re: Questions about Multiple SBS Domains and users

Or...if you really want SBS in both places (yes we all know it's cheaper)
Then you'll actually have to add CALs at both servers and create account's for them "in the other network" and they could create a VPN connection as required to access "the other stuff"

Are they physically separated? And as Charlie said..is it just a case of wanting a separate domain for email.

No. SBS does not support trust relationships. Period. It must be in a single domain forest, and doesn't even support cross-forest trusts.

If your reason for setting up a new company is to have a separate email address, that is easy to do without creating a new domain. But if you need to keep them in entirely separate domains, then you're either going to have to move to a full Server 2k3 environment, with two Server 2k3 (or Server 2k8) boxes, no SBS at all to have employees who have accounts with access to both domains.

Hello,

The company I work for is about to setup a second company. The second
company will be getting all new hardware and software and its on me to
tell them what we'll need.

I want to run SBS 2003 on the new server. We are already running it on
the current server, so I would be setting up an entirely new box, with
a new domain, and most likely in a new forest. Can we do some form of
trust that would allow 5 of our current employees access to
information on the new server without having to log off this domain
and log on to that one?

thanks,

Ken
