How define users of another domain.

Hi everybody, i should have a little problem.
I must grant the access (using odbc) to users of domain "A" to a sql server
2000 instance running in another domain (domain "B").
Well, if the users read the database like user "sa" (defined in the odbc
connection) there aren't problems but if in the odbc connection is specified
the "trust connection" flag nobody can read data.
In sql server the users are defined both username and domain\username and
permissions are defined correctly.
What could i do?
Thanks in avance for your answers.
RobyHi
If your SQL Server is in Domain A, you need to setup a trust relationship
with Domain B at Active Directory level.
Then, when use "B\user1" presents it's credentials to the SQL Server, SQL
Server passes the request to the OS, which in turn passes it to Domain A's
domain controller, who in turn passes the request to Domain B's domain
controller.
The trusting is done at OS level. If you can not setup a trust, then you
need to keep using SQL Server Security.
