Thread: The Authentication required accessing Trusted Domain? Resolution

Hi everyone,

Where doing a migration of are AD to a new server so am following way Microsoft suggests have some success doing it, but that was a quick test run.

Here is where am up to I have DNS solution between the old and new domains; I have set up a two way faith validated on both sides.

OLDDOM - Old Domain
NEWDOM - New Domain

The problem is On OLDDOM I can browse via AD to NEWDOM's AD though when am on NEWDOM's AD it asks me for a username and password when I attempt and browse OLDDOM's AD even when I type them in it says there wrong but this must not occur with trust. During the test run this did not happen.

Hi,

It looks like you want to add user accounts to new server.

What user accounts want to be added to new server?

Hi,

You are setting up a faith just to transfer an AD domain? Why didn't you install a new DC, move master operations role to new server, run a dcdiag from old server then demote it? I have never heard of a faith being made to migrate AD.

Do you know where I could obtain step-by-step guides for the way you have said to do it?

The company has decided to alter domain name, will this work if domain name is different?

No it won’t. If you would like to modify domain name you will want to use active directory migration tool. Can’t give you a walk through because I have never used it. It pretty much just copies all the objects instead of whole schema.
