    Urgent - Windows 2003 Trust and NAT

    Hi,

    I have a windows 2003 forest that is behind a NAT firewall. I want to create
    a trust relationship from mine forest to that one behind the firewall. I have
    created a stub zone in my forest but it doesnt work.

    How can i configure this trust? Any ideas?

    TIA,

    Clemente

    I'm probably mistaken, but I don't believe that the trust will work
    when NAT is involved. You *may* be able to establish static NAT
    (1-to-1) mappings for the DCs in your forest and get the trust to work
    that way, but I'm still thinking that you'll run into problems down
    the road.

    Re: Urgent - Windows 2003 Trust and NAT

    If you have a firewall between two forests you need to make sure you have
    the proper ports opened so communications between the two forests can occur.
    You can either open up individual ports and there are many -or- you can
    establish a vpn connection between the two. I am unclear as to how you have
    established your communications but I would recommend you set up a vpn.

    If you decide to open up individual ports see my web site article on ports
    needed
    http://www.pbbergs.com
    Select articles and click on firewall ports needed for replication.

    As far as dns goes I usually just setup up secondaries of each other's
    forest

    Re: Urgent - Windows 2003 Trust and NAT

    Hi,

    Thanks for your answer. But the problem here is that the firewall is in NAT
    mode. The DNS server that is published trough the firewall returns inside IP
    addresses to DNS queries.

    Is the only solution the VPN? But a site-to-site VPN?
    Why cant i find some hints to these problem? Nobody has done this before?

    If i make a VPN between the two DCs of the different forests theres a
    security breach. The dc can access entire network trough that vpn.
    Can u give some sites so i can see how to configura the VPN in this cenario?
    Will i use IPSec tunnel? L2tp?

    I just want to make an external trust between forests. No Active Directory
    replication will take place between the two forests. I just want one AD
    forest to use the other for authentication purpose.

    TIA,

    Clemente
    Portugal

    What do you mean a security violation. The key word in this is "Trust." If
    you don't trust one side then don't establish the trust or make it a one way
    trust.
