DNS settings

[Guest]

I believe my DNS servers are configured incorrectly, first off I can not ping my domains, ie. etcetera.com.mx. yet I can ping my domain servers. Second off in AD Domains and trusts, I recieve the folling error while trying to view the properties of another trusted domain. "The active directory object could not be displayed" "A referral was returned from the server

When I created the domains, I had the dcpromo, create the DNS server with its default settings, am I missing something_ should I recreate settings_ Any suggestions, because also the lag time between domains is terrible, and NetBIOS names seem to the sure way (other than IPs) to communicate client PCs.
