Unable to create replication subscription in a different domain.

Hi All,

I'm attempting to set up replication between two servers (both are SQL Server 2008 R2 EE) in two different domains, both of which are trusted, but am unable to do so as I receive the following error:

"Cannot connect to xxxxxx.

SQL Server replication requires the actual server name to make a connection to the server. Connections through a server alias, IP address, or any other alternate name are not supported. Specify the actual server name, 'xxxxxx'. (Replication.Utilities)"

If I put just the server name into the field and connect I receive the error stating that the server is not accessible since it's in another domain.

I'm able to connect to this server through SSMS on the publisher and am also able to browse the DBs on the server when specifying the server name and domain, yet am unable to proceed with setting up the subscription.

In searching for a solution I came across the following post, however when attempting to implement the proposed solution I still receive the same messages above:

Looks like I've hit a wall for the moment, any ideas?
