Connect two Active Directories together
Hi,
I have two seperate active (atom.local and npi.local) these active directories have a specific group of users whom exist on both servers.
I want to be able to sync these two ADs together so that users can log on to systems belonging to both ADs.

In scenarios like this, an identity synchronization solution has proven to be a reliable and scalable approach. Various tools can automate this process, ensuring user attributes and credentials remain synchronized and up to date across domains. One such solution you may find effective is MachSol’s Identity Synchronization, specifically designed to address cross-AD synchronization challenges.

- You are probably going to have to setup a Full Two Way Transitive Forest Trust between the two forests. I don't know of anything that will "sync" the users between them. You can do an Active Directory Migration, but that would be if you wanted to collapse one and move all the others into a single forest.
