trust between a domain & Workgroup?

Is it possible to establish a trust between a domain and a workgroup and vice
versa? Trying to work out some kinks on VPN and Outlook with a remote
office. Thanks

There is no such thing as a trust between a domain and a workgroup, however
that does not mean there can not be access. For instance if a user in a
workgroup has a user account in the domain that user can access resources in
the domain or if a domain user has the same logon/password on a workgroup
computer. If a user is having problem with access then they may need to
enter their username as domain\username or computer\username in the
credentials box if prompted for access. --- Steve
