Sure it does.  You could do that with the utilities I listed too, but  
writing your own code you've got more visibility into what's happening.

I'm sure you realize it could fail for more reasons than just lack of  
a trust relationship also.  I've found I can't get away from these  
little hip-picket test programs when I need to debug things.  Name  
canonicalization and DNS (or NIS) interactions seem especially  
problematic in the real world for me.
