Configuring People Picker in One Way Trust environment

  • Article

I am sharing below steps that I followed to setup people picker:

Configure both the DCs

Created two DCs for Ramrk15.com and Sky15.com domains

- Other info

o SharePoint setup is in Ramrk15.com

o Sky15.com users should get access to SharePoint

o Ramrk15.com trusts Sky15.com

o Outgoing trust to be created for ramrk15 to sky15

- In domain and trust

o Raised the domain and forest function level to Windows server 2003 in both DC

- In DNS of Ramrk15.com

o Properties > Forwarders TAB

o Add the IP of Sky15.com DC

o Do vice-versa in Ramrk15.com’s DC

In SharePoint

On SharePoint server ran below command:

o stsdm -o setapppassword -password Passw0rd

o stsadm -o setproperty -url https://ramr1820195 -pn peoplepicker-searchadforests -pv "domain:ramrk15.com;domain:sky15.com",sky15\administrator,password

          Now the users are listed in people picker from the sky15.com
