I forgot to answer your questions in the previous post:
1. Ipconfig of the domain controller is as follows:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Windows 2000 IP Configuration
        Host Name . . . . . . . . . . . . : aa-ds2
        Primary DNS Suffix . . . . . . . : altarum.pri
        Node Type . . . . . . . . . . . . : Broadcast

        IP Routing Enabled. . . . . . . . : No

        WINS Proxy Enabled. . . . . . . . : No

        DNS Suffix Search List. . . . . . : altarum.pri

Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection:

        Connection-specific DNS Suffix . :
        Description . . . . . . . . . . . : Netelligent 10/100TX PCI UTP Controller
        Physical Address. . . . . . . . . : 00-08-C7-CF-8B-1C

        DHCP Enabled. . . . . . . . . . . : No

        IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 198.108.7.2

        Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0

        Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 198.108.7.1

        DNS Servers . . . . . . . . . . . : 198.108.7.9
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2. The AD domain name is: altarum.pri

3. The zone in dns is also named altarum.pri and has dynamic updating
enabled (but not secure updates only).

I have confirmed that there are DNS entries for all name servers in the
forest and have run ipconfig /registerdns on the replicating partners just to
be sure. Hopefully this information will be helpful with the replication
problem.

Thanks again for all the help,
Michelle
