I an trying to setup an exchange 2000 server, I believe I am having trouble seting it up because the Active Directory is not replicating to the machine. I have entered AD Sites and Services and opened up the exchange server, setup a connection and Ireceive the following error when I try to replicate now "The DSA operation is unable to proceed because od a DNS failure" or when I left click NTDS Settings | Check replication topology I get the error AD property cannot be found in cache. I have double checked DNS all seems OK. Please Help!

Verify that your Primary DNS settings are pointing to the correct DNS server.

This behavior can occur when DNS on the preferred DNS server is not configured properly.

To resolve this issue, make sure that your local DNS server allows dynamic updates and supports Service Location (SRV) resource records.
