What is Trust Relationship?

TRUSTS
               Trust Relationship can be created between domains to facilitate user
authentication and data access.
                 Types
of Trusts are:
1. Internal Trust: – It is a trust created
automatically between the parent domain and the child domain.
2. External Trust: – It is a trust created between
different parent domains and this kind of trust is created manually.
3. Short-cut Trust: – It is a trust created between
child domains belonging to a same parent domain. It helps in speeding up user
authentication and logon process in different domains.
4. Forest Trust: –
It is a trust created only in network having windows 2003 server DCs. When
forest trust is created between two different parent domains, child domains in
each parent also trust Childs of other parent domain.
5. Realm Trust: – It is a trust created between
Windows DC and a Linux/Unix computer. It is a trust created only to
authenticate users of Windows or Linux/Unix, using the Kerberos protocol.

12. Make a client PC member of amartex.com domain
and you will see users of both amatex.com and woodland.com can logon on the
client but the user will logon to his respective domain only.
