How to backup a domain controller in a domain that has no "trust" in place?
1. Create a new Computer Collection with the domain controller(s) from the untrusted domain, or DMZ domain
2. Go to the properties of the Computer Collection and then go to the "Agent Settings" tab
3. Select the option "Use the following account to access Backup Agent and backup files" and specify Domain Administrator credentials from the untrusted domain
Please note, there has to be network connectivity between the RMAD server and the DCs in the untrusted domain. The RMAD server has to be able enumerate the domain to be able to add DCs to the collections and has to communicate with the backup agents on the DCs when the backups run. If there is no network connectivity the only other option is to install an RMAD server in the other domain and use it to perform the backups of the DCs in that domain.
