DC and DNS issue

I have a native 2000 environment with 1 DC as the Primary
domain controller emulator role and with and active
directory integrated zone in DNS.

I have managed to upgrade another of my member servers to
domain controller but it didn't finish replicating the
domain across.

When I try to do a force replication I get an error RPC
Server unavaliable, and then points it to be a DNS issue.
My DNS zone file includes the _mcds, _tcp, _udp and _sites
folders and appears set up fine and is the only DNS server
in my new domain controllers NIC configuration.

Through active directory users and computers when I try to
connect to domain controller (from my PDC) I get the same
error as above. But from my new domain controller I can
connect to both, and it shows that the new DC does not
have the same OU's as the PDC.

Can anyone shed some light?

cheers

Brad
 
What exactly do you mean by "upgrade" a member server?
What procedure did you use to promote the member server?
