Simple question: is it possible to have two active directory domains, one being parent to the other (a forest) and have two user accounts with the same login, one in each domain ?
Thanks

You can - but it's fairly silly to do that. In AD, domains in the same tree will trust each other, so you can assign rights for resources in Domain A to a user in Domain B, and vice-versa. No need to make accounts with the same names.
