Creating Forest Trusts
You can link two disjoined Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) forests together to form a one-way or two-way, transitive trust relationship.
The following are required to create forest trusts successfully:
You can create a forest trust between two Windows Server 2003 forests, between two Windows Server 2008 forests, between two Windows Server 2008 R2 forests, between a Windows Server 2003 forest and a Windows Server 2008 forest, between a Windows Server 2003 forest and a Windows Server 2008 R2 forest, or between a Windows Server 2008 forest and a Windows Server 2008 R2 forest. Forest trusts cannot be extended implicitly to a third forest.
To create a forest trust, the minimum forest functional level for the forests that are involved in the trust relationship is Windows Server 2003.
