Subject: [ActiveDir] FYI: W2K3 SP1 & VMWARE issue

Hi Everyone,

As you all may know a few months ago I posted two issues with Vmware and W2K3SP1 DCs. The issues described are:
* Adding additional W2K3SP1 DCs to the forest
* Creating trusts from a W2K3SP1 forest to another forest (does not matter which OS)

Both the issues are described here:

This time a was setting up an environment with a w2k forest and a w2k3 sp1 forest. When setting up the trust I received the error we discussed a while ago (see articles above). A few days ago someone posted which component caused this issue. The component in error seems to be the "Shared Folder" component from Vmware (at least in Vmware Workstation). This time instead of changing the password of the administrator account, I deinstalled the "Shared Folder" component and rebooted the DC. After that I was able to create the trust without any problem.

So, the "Shared Folder" component from Vmware does seem to be the root cause of this.

Cheers,
Jorge
