I have SharePoint 2013 server installed in domain A and I can get users from AD in that domain.
Now, I also need users from domain B.

There is a one-way thrust between domains.

I tried setting people picker with:
stsadm -o setproperty -pn peoplepicker-searchadforests -pv "forest:DomainA.com;forest:DomainB.com,DomainB\login,password" -url "Your webapp url"

but with no luck.

In the domainA I have one SP2007 server installed and it can get users from both domain A and B, so I know that this is possible, but don't know how. This SP2007 doesn't have User Profile Service, nor does it have People picker property set.

What I need to do to read users in Sp2013 from ADs in two different domains??

    Ok, sorry, I found the solution:
    https://www.netwoven.com/2015/09/07/cannot-retrieve-the-information-for-application-credential-key-on-incoming-email-in-sharepoint/

    So, firstly I need to do this
    stsadm -o setapppassword -password ABCD

    before I could set the people picker
