In the DNS Management console, create a new forward lookup zone name
__msdcs.forestdomain, replicate to all DNS servers in the forest,
temporarily point all DCs to it, then restart the Netlogon service of all
DCs in the forest.

Assuming you attempted to create a new zone called
"_msdcs.forestdomain.com", what error did you receive?

I see. Your original post stated this DC cannot replicate to other DCs.
Basically, if you created the _msdcs.forestdomain.com, the necessary records
will automatically populate either when the netlogon service goes thru it's
cycle to register it or when you restart the netlogon service.

If this is not happening, then there is a deeper problem occuring. Maybe at
this time we'll to ask some more required information to you. Can you
post the following information please?

1. Unedited ipconfig /all of this DC and a sample of one of your other DCs
(copy and paste from command prompt into your reply).
2. Name of the Active Directory domain name
3. Name of the zone in DNS and if updates are allowed.
4. Any errors in the Event logs. Post the Event ID# and Source name please.
5. Are any DCs multihomed?
6. How many domains doyou have in the forest?
7. How many DCs in each domain?

Thank you,
Ace

Did you restart the netlogon service on all DCs?
Is the DC using only the internal DNS IP for DNS?

If yes, then as Ace said, you could have a deeper problem and we need to see
the information Acr asked for.
