Thanks Chris, that option hadn't occurred to me and would
seem to solve the immediate problem.
To anyone else out there that has some expertise in AD,
I'd would also appreciate some pointers on how to
establish trust relationships between two "forests"; or
where to look for the information. It's not that
Microsoft's site doesn't have the info, I've got the
opposite problem. :-)
