Make sure that the server points to only the Windows 2003 domain controller
as it's preferred dns server. Then remove it from the domain to a workgroup
temporarily, reboot, join it to the new domain, reboot again and you should
be good to go though you may want to double check access list permissions
and local group memberships if permissions were given to domain global
groups and they were included in local groups. The link below may be helpful
in how dns must be setup in an Active Directory domain. Also you will find
the support tools netdiag, dcdiag, and gpotool very helpful in checking the
health of your domain computers and domain controllers. --- Steve
