Is the whole infrastructure Win2003 or is it mixed?
What shows up in the _msdcs zone on the child?
When you created it, did you make the zone AD integrated and set it to
Forest wide replication? If so, and communication and AD replication is
working, then the zone should just pop up.
What errors are you getting in your Event viewer in relation to AD? Are
there firewalls between the locations?
