I have been thinking about trying out the trusts – but not sure how that will work out given I’m on 2003 native mode but the other side of the Frame Relay (different company) is in mixed mode…

It’s a long story about the Frame Relay and the two companies that used to be one company and the two networks. But hopefully we’ll be ditching it soon which will be a nice and easy resolution to my question. hehe

I’ll take a look at the options suggested. Thanks again!

Microsoft’s Identity Integration Server (MIIS) will do this for you. Since you are only synching between AD, I believe (95% sure) that the free version will work for you. Let me know through a private reply if you would like some help with this kind of project, but it’s not a major undertaking.

BTW, it’s a little strange that you want to keep accounts in both domains for security reasons, but you want to sync the accounts and passwords? You could probably achieve want you want by establishing a trust and then implementing whatever security policy you want to have in place using some of the many, many options to manage authentication and access between trusted domains.

Hope this helps,
Dave
