Sever 2003 & NT Trust Problem

I am setting up an new sever running Windows Server 2003 and would like to
set up a trust with an old server running NT4 SP6. The server came with
Server 2003 pre-installed and I was able to set up a domain trust between the
two servers. Due to some issues with the hard drive patitioning on the Y2K3
server, I opted to repartion the hard drives requiring a clean install of
Y2K3. Now, when trying to set up the trust, I get an error message on the
NT4 server stating it can not find the domain I specify. Any help would be
appreciated.

You have to delete the trust and recreate it. Using the same Domain Name
when rebuilding the machine doe *not* make it the same Domain,...it is
simply a different Domain with the same Name.

The NT Server needs to use the W2k3 machine's AD DNS as its DNS in the NT
machine's DNS Settings. you also want to run WINS on the W2k3 machine and
then use that same WINS in the NT's network settings.

NT is WINS (Netbios-based),...W2k3 is DNS based,...you need WINS to bridege
the gap.
