Tryed that and I get this message from the server trying to join the domain

Note: This information is intended for a network administrator. If you are
not your network's administrator, notify the administrator that you received
this information, which has been recorded in the file
C:\WINDOWS\debug\dcdiag.txt.

DNS was successfully queried for the service location (SRV) resource record
used to locate a domain controller for domain NETFLO.NET:

The query was for the SRV record for _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.NETFLO.NET

The following domain controllers were identified by the query:

esinet.netflo.net

Common causes of this error include:

- Host (A) records that map the name of the domain controller to its IP
addresses are missing or contain incorrect addresses.

- Domain controllers registered in DNS are not connected to the network or
are not running.

For information about correcting this problem, click Help.

The new domain is up and has workstations and a 2000 Server joined to it
however this is the only server with dual nics.
