Hi, You're connecting to share with user account from the domain in location 2, BUT you're logged with the user account from the domain in location 1 (NT4) and thus the MMC is started in the context of the NT4 user account I don't think RUNAS will work as you don't have a trust between the domains. Try RUNAS /NETONLY /USER:<DOMAIN>\<USER> "MMC.EXE DSA.MSC" DSA.MSC is the "Active Directory Users and Computers MMC" replace this with the MMC of your choice Regards, Jorge -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [email protected] Sent: 2/24/2005 10:43 PM Subject: [ActiveDir] Custom MMC Environment Windows NT 4 Domain Location 1 Windows 2000 Native Domain/Forest Location 2 No Trust relationship Custom MMC Resides on share on server in location 2 User has account in Location 2 domain User logged into Computer in Location 1 Users Computer is a member of Location 1 I have a user who is in a Windows NT 4 domain, running Windows 2000 Professional that I want to grant access for their Location 2 user account to reset passwords on their specific organizational unit. I setup a Custom MMC and saved it on a server share. The user has accessed the server share and when prompted to provide login credentials entered in his user account from Location 2. Double clicks on the MMC console and gets the following error Naming Information Cannot Be Located: The specified domain either does not exist or could not be contacted. When I login as the user form Location 2 on a computer form location 2 the MMC console works. DNS is working perfectly, he is using my DNS Server to do all resolutions. What could be the problem?
