Primary and Trusted Domains
Hello All,
Hope this post finds you in good health and spirit.
This post is regarding Primary and Trusted Domains.
The following terms describe domains that exist on remote systems.
- Primary Domain
- Trusted Domain
Primary Domain
A primary domain is the one in responsibility of providing authentication and creating further trust relationships (or for passing an authentication request on to an appropriate trusted domain). Requests for authentication that come from the workstation are handled by the domain controllers in the principal domain or forwarded to them.
The LSA checks the built-in and account domains for authentication data at logon. The login request is sent to the system’s principal domain if the account being signed on to is not in one of these domains.
Trusted Domain
A trusted domain is a domain that the local system trusts to authenticate users. In other words, if a user or application is authenticated by a trusted domain, this authentication is accepted by all domains that trust the authenticating domain.
Each subordinate domain automatically has a two-way trust relationship with the main domain. By default, this trust is transitive, meaning that if a system trusts Domain A, it also trusts all domains that Domain A trusts. One-way trusts are also supported for operating systems earlier than Windows 2000, which do not support transitive, two-way trusts.
The Local Security Authority (LSA) has an object type, TrustedDomain, that is used to store information about trust relationships, including the name and security identifier (SID) of the trusted domain, the account in the domain to use for authentication requests, name and SID translation requests, and the names of domain controllers in the trusted domain.
On domain controllers, the LSA creates an instance of a TrustedDomain object for each domain trusted by the local system.
For example, if a Windows XP workstation trusts a Windows 2000 domain controller that in turn trusts four other systems, the workstation, connected using transitive trust, will have five TrustedDomain objects on its local system.
