Defining trusts is really going to be more of a manual process then
leaning on any kind of tool set. While some tools are great for
determining basic access, there are none to my knowledge that will
discern if that access is granted via 'good ol fashion' trust v.
simple inclusion type access. If I had this task ahead of me, I'd
start with an up to date topology map, identify the servers that have
the ability to lean on a trust relationship (MS Domain, NIS Cloud,
etc) and then visit each host to review if there are any relationships
set up, from there identify the machines that fall under the control
of those 'master' servers. At that point you'll have a pretty
accurate view of relationships in your network.
Beyond that you'll be doing a ton of scanning with vary suspect
results, and because a port opens on a target from some source doesn't
mean there is a trust established.
