What is forest trust?

Rating:

A forest trust is a two-way transitive trust. It is created explicitly (manually) by system administrators between the two forest root domains. It allows all authentication requests made from one forest to reach the other forest. A forest trust simplifies management, as it reduces the number of external trusts that are necessary to share resources between two forests. It supports both NTLM and the Kerberos authentication protocol.

Note: Forest trusts are transitive between only two forests. For example, if a forest trust is configured between ForestA and ForestB, and a forest trust is created between ForestB and ForestC, ForestA will not have an implicit trust with ForestC.
