MOSS 2007 can only grant permissions to users in the local domain...
Greetings all,
Where ever I go and attempt to add a user to a group or to grant permissions to a user I am never able to select users from other domains. The only users I can select are users in the domain where MOSS 2007 was installed. Is there a setting in
MOSS that I need to change to be able to add users from other domains to groups in SharePoint?
Thanks for any and all insights.

Does other domains having the trust with the local domain on which MOSS installed?
is their any firewall between them?
can you access the other domain account on your local domain?

thanks

Hi,
SharePoint would search for the two-way trusted domains automatically; I suppose your issue happened on a one-way trusted domain.
If so, you need to use
Peoplepicker-searchadforests: Stsadm property (Office SharePoint Server) to configure on your sites before SharePoint can search for the users.
For more information, please refer to:

Hope the information can be helpful.
