One-way inbound trusts Wowbagger 02-27-2006

In our office environment there is an existing domain that everybody uses,
hosted on a server over which I have no control. I want to create a
separate domain on a new server for our own private workgroup complete with
a separate domain, entirely separate from the other.

Will a one-way inbound trust allow any authorized in existingdomain access
newdomain?

If the existing environment is an Active Directory
environment, I just want to caution you that setting up
a new domain/forest is not a casual decision, and should
really be thought over...

Your question is confusing though as to the trust
relationship. If you create a trust so that the new
fiefdom domain trusts the existing account domain, then
accounts from the existing account domain can be
assigned permissions or memberships in domain local
groups in the new fiefdom domain.

Again, I really do not recommend setting up a new
domain. If you do not have control of the domain, it is
probably for a corporate reason, and setting up a new
domain for bypassing this security could be a security
policy issue.

I will just add to Brian's great advise, as I notice that all discussion
was about domains, with no mention of forest.

If the new domain is within the forest of the other domain, then you
would really not be gaining as much as you may think since the
inherent trusts between domains within a forest will exist. You could
still exert control over much for limited user accounts of the other
domain, along the lines Brian outlined.

Either way (one or two forests) however, setting up a new domain is
not something one does on a whim in order to attempt solving some
believed need.
Rather, as suggested, it should be well thought through and planned.
