Hi,

is it possible to use MOM to discover computers from different domains
without using domain trusts ? I created a lab (lab.local) with two servers
(AD + MOM) and I would like to discover the computers from my domain (used
by my company named production.local). I added a secondary DNS zone to help
MOM to discover the computers but I see an error which mean MOM is not able
to enumerate the computers of the domain production.local because it does
not have the correct credentials.

As I understand the situation, I think I have to create a domain trust to
check my production domain because I didn't found any parameter in the GUI
to enter different credentials for different targets. I know I can try to
install an agent manually (by entering specific credentials at this time)
but my request is regarding the discovery process.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hello,

Thank you for your posting!

Yes. MOM supports workgroup and untrusted domain.

If you have any questions, please feel to let me know. I am glad to be of
assistance.

You must turn off mutual authentication if you have agents that are in
a workgroup or untrusted domain.
