Define Domain Forests in Active Directory?

Submitted by: Administrator
A forest consists of multiple domain trees. The domain trees in a forest do not form a contiguous namespace but share a common schema and GC. The forest root domain is the first domain created in the forest. The root domains of all domain trees in the forest establish transitive trust relationships with the forest root domain. This is necessary for the purposes of establishing trust across all the domain trees in the forest. All of the Windows 2000 domains in all of the domain trees in a forest share the following traits:
★ Transitive trust relationships between the domains
★ Transitive trust relationships between the domain trees
★ A common schema
★ Common configuration information
★ A common global catalog
Using both domain trees and forests provides you with the flexibility of both contiguous and non-contiguous naming conventions. This can be useful in, for example, companies with independent divisions that must each maintain their own DNS names.
