one way forest trust

I have successfully created a one-way trust between two forests of separate organizations. Unfortunately, I cannot configure Selective Authentication in the Trusting domain, nor assign permissions for user groups in the trusted domain without providing account credentials for the trusted domain. Does this mean a domain for a separate organization has to create an administrator account for the Trusting domain? No matter which way I do this, I get the same results. I am prompted for an account in the other domain. Shouldn't I be able to pull Global Group over the trust without having to provide admin credentials? Isn't that what the trust is for?

Oneway outgoing trust granted the permission for self domain resources hence does not need the additional password when we are created the trust.

Selective authentication provides Active Directory administrators who manage a trusting forest more control over which groups of users in a trusted forest can access shared resources in the trusting forest. Because creating an external trust or forest trust provides a pathway for all authentication requests between the forests, this increased control is especially important when administrators need to grant access to shared resources in their organization’s forest to a limited set of users in another organization’s forest.
For more information about how selective authentication settings work, see "Security Considerations for Trusts" in theWindows Server 2003 Technical Reference
