DomainB wants to be separate in what sense? You mean they want their login to remain the same? they want their email address to remain the same? Websites? And what resources are we needing "seamless" access to? Exchange in the picture? If so, do they want "seamless" GAL? The reason I'm asking is because these are considerations that go into answering what you are asking. More info would be helpful. Sincerely,

Management at both organizations would like "pretty seamless" access to each other's resources while maintaining their own identities...i.e, DomainB does not want to be DomainB.DomainA.com. My first thoughts are to have a forest with both domains in it (Forest containing DomainA.com and DomainB.com)...but how easy/hard is that to implement when DomainA.com already exists and you need to create/add DomainB.com to the forest? I'm stepping into new territory here and would appreciate any suggestions, comments etc. concerning this. I'm researching this on the web and I know from past discussions on this list that I'm bound to learn something new here! If you need more info, let me know. r/ Lou
