SharePoint 2013 - Unable to resolve users from another trusted domain


Consider the following scenario:
You have two domains ABC.net and XYZ.net
SharePoint 2013 is installed on domain ABC.net and you have a two-way trust between both the domains
Adding a user from XYZ.net domain to a network share in ABC.net domain is working fine and we are able to see users from XYZ.net domain (vice-versa).

However, we are unable to resolve the user accounts from XYZ.net domain when trying to add them via people picker to a SharePoint 2010 site.


Cause

Unlike MOSS 2007 or SharePoint Server 2010, we need to register all two-way trusted domains with the people picker in SharePoint 2013

Resolution

Logon using the farm account credentials and open an elevated command prompt
Change to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\15\BIN folder
Execute the following command

Stsadm -o setproperty -pn peoplepicker-searchadforests -pv "domain:ABC.net,Login name,Password;domain:XYZ.net,Login name,Password" -url http://contoso.com
For more information, see Peoplepicker-searchadforests: Stsadm property
Note: There are no Windows PowerShell commands to configure People Picker.
