Hi all,
so heres the setup:
w2k Server (BDC) ASL 3.202 w2k Server (PDC)
192.168.100.1 (BDC) 192.168.100.254 (ASL) 10.10.10.254 10.10.10.1 (PDC)
Problem: cant connect an Active Directory PDC and BDC through the ASL.
According to Microsoft you cant create a Trust relationship if one of the Servers is NATed. Reference: KB Article Q263293 and Q172227 (nt4)
Reason: even though the IP address of the Packet is NATed, the NETBIOS Header (which contains the IP address also) is not.
Microsoft offers the solution of building a PPTP connection between the two Hosts. err.. havent quite gotten that to work.
However it seems that I should be able to do Port Forwarding on Ports 137,138, and 139 ONLY and pass the BDC IP to the PDC. All other ports would/should be MASQed normally.
Has anyone got it to work any which way?
Once again very very [:S]c.
