Creating Realm Trusts

Applies To: Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2008 R2

You can create a realm trust to form a one-way or two-way, nontransitive or transitive trust with non-Windows Kerberos realms in your organization. You can create the trust when you are logged on to the domain, or you can use the Run as command to create the trust for a different domain.
