When you promoted the server to a Domain Controller it asked you to allow it
to set up DNS for Active Directory, did it do this?

Being Win2k3, it should have created two forward lookup zones, one named
with your domain name, the other named _msdcs.domainname.
Are these zones in DNS?

Post an ipconfig /all from the DC and the AD domain name.
