        I thought it was strange as well, but here it is:

http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/793/lan_switching/2.html

Creation of a Switch-to-Switch ISL Trunk Tasks

These steps guide you through this configuration:

   1. Connect a terminal to the switches.
   2.Verify ISL support on the ports.
   3. Connect the switches.
   4. Verify that the ports are operational.
   5. Assign IP addresses to the management ports.
   6. Verify that the switches are not trunking over the link.
   7. Ping from switch to switch.
   8. Create a VLAN 2 in each switch.
   9. Move the management interface (sc0) to VLAN 2 (for CatOS).
  10. Verify that you cannot ping from switch to switch.
  11. Configure the same VTP domain name in each switch.
  12. Enable trunking between the switches.
  13. Verify that the switches are trunking over the link.
  14. Ping from switch to switch.

James,

I thought DTP is completely independent of VTP, domain names, etc.

Have you tested this?

Is domain name included in the DTP negotiation?

You can have a VTP mode of Transparent - and still rely on DTP for trunk
formation. Yes, the domain names need to match.
