Creating Trust

I am running Server 2003 on 2 servers, 1 each in of two domains (lee.aft.
corp and albany.aft .corp). In the lee domain, I was able to create the trust
with the new trust wizard. I set it up as a - external, 2 way, nontransitive
trust. I got the following message: "Before the trust can function, it must
also be created in the other domain. Ensure that the same passsword is used
in both domains."
But, when I went to the albany domain to set up the trust, I got the error
"could not connect to the lee domain controller" when I tried to use the 'new
trust' wizard.

Please help!!

Thank you
