Is this 2003 server pointing at the internal DNS server for this domain?

What is the outcome of running this command:

C:\>nltest /dsgetdc:domain-name.com

Are you simply trying to add the box as a domain member (member server) or
are you trying to promote it to a DC?

Hi to all,
When I try to join a windows 2003 server (entreprise edition) to a active
directory windows 2000 (native) domain. I have this issue:  The specified
domain either does not exist or could not be contacted.
1.With a server windows 2000 , I have no problem to join this domain.
2.All my DNS records are OK (netdiag, dcdiag, ldap.)
3.I try with netdom, it said me that the domain doesn't exist.
4.I can map resources between the stand-alone server and the domain's 
servers.
Thank's for your help
