I am using windows 2003 STD EDT. I had created staf zone in win2k3. But
after creating the Staf Zone my group policies are not getting force
except the Server. I have configure DHCP on same server and i forcing
DNS settings from DHCP. i am using server IP address as a primary DNS.

Can any one tell me what's the problem with my DNS configuration.

The First thing that come to mind when someone states "i am using server IP
address as a primary DNS." is that you have an ISP or external DNS as an
Alternate, which you cannot do in an Active Directory environment. Use only
the internal DNS.

Post the ipconfig /all from the server and a client,

Don't use an external DNS in any position.
