I am assuming the DCs are all in the same domain and that you are having NO
problems with AD replication. If you have Sites configured, youwill need to
wait for the site schedule to run for replication happen before you see it
on the other servers. If you are trying to add a zone on one machine, and
the zone exists elsewhere, it will look at it as a conflict and not show up
or just see the old one. The rule with AD Integrated zones is create them on
ONE domain controller, make sure DNS is installed on the other DCs, and the
zone will magically appear (with due patience) after replication happens. If
you are trying to beat the system, that can cause issues.
The method I described will give you the separate zones you want. You may
need to delete all of them and wait for replication to occur so the deletion
is seen by all DCs, then try again. If you are still having problems, I
would use ADSI Edit to check the DomainNC container to see if there is a
conflicting zone signified by a CNF_ prefix. Delete them if they exist and
start from scratch.
