ADDomainTrust .DESCRIPTION The ADDomainTrust DSC resource will manage Domain Trusts within Active Directory. A trust is a relationship, which you establish between domains or forests. To understand more about trusts in Active Directory, please see the article https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/identity/ad-ds/plan/forest-design-models for more information. ## Requirements * Target machine must be running Windows Server 2008 R2 or later. .PARAMETER Ensure Write - String Allowed values: Present, Absent Specifies whether the computer account is present or absent. Default value is 'Present'. .PARAMETER TargetCredential Required - Instance Specifies the credentials to authenticate to the target domain. .PARAMETER TargetDomainName Key - String Specifies the name of the Active Directory domain that is being trusted. .PARAMETER TrustType Required - String Allowed values: External, Forest Specifies the type of trust. The value 'External' means the context Domain, while the value 'Forest' means the context 'Forest'. .PARAMETER TrustDirection Required - String Allowed values: Bidirectional, Inbound, Outbound Specifies the direction of the trust. .PARAMETER SourceDomainName Key - String Specifies the name of the Active Directory domain that is requesting the trust. .PARAMETER AllowTrustRecreation Write - Boolean Specifies if the is allowed to be recreated if required. Default value is $false. .EXAMPLE 1 This configuration will create a new one way inbound trust between two domains. Configuration ADDomainTrust_ExternalInboundTrust_Config { param ( [Parameter(Mandatory = $true)] [System.String] $SourceDomain, [Parameter(Mandatory = $true)] [System.String] $TargetDomain, [Parameter(Mandatory = $true)] [System.Management.Automation.PSCredential] $TargetDomainAdminCred ) Import-DscResource -module ActiveDirectoryDsc node localhost { ADDomainTrust 'Trust' { Ensure = 'Present' SourceDomainName = $SourceDomain TargetDomainName = $TargetDomain TargetCredential = $TargetDomainAdminCred TrustDirection = 'Inbound' TrustType = 'External' } } } .EXAMPLE 2 This configuration will create a new one way inbound trust between two domains, and allows the trust to recreated if it should have the wrong trust type. Configuration ADDomainTrust_ExternalInboundTrustWithOptInToRecreate_Config { param ( [Parameter(Mandatory = $true)] [System.String] $SourceDomain, [Parameter(Mandatory = $true)] [System.String] $TargetDomain, [Parameter(Mandatory = $true)] [System.Management.Automation.PSCredential] $TargetDomainAdminCred ) Import-DscResource -module ActiveDirectoryDsc node localhost { ADDomainTrust 'Trust' { Ensure = 'Present' SourceDomainName = $SourceDomain TargetDomainName = $TargetDomain TargetCredential = $TargetDomainAdminCred TrustDirection = 'Inbound' TrustType = 'External' AllowTrustRecreation = $true } } } |
