Hi,
The DNS behavior that you are seeing is expected on a server running DNS and
RRAS, check the following article for a resolution on getting the proper A
records registered:
292822 Name resolution and connectivity issues on a Routing and Remote
Access
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=292822
In regards to the replication issues, since they are highly dependant on
name resolution, this will need to be addressed first. Make sure that the
servers are pointing to a common DNS server and can access the proper SRV
records. You might have to use metadata cleanup at this time to remove the
orphaned DC off the AD and then attempt to re-add it again as a new DC.
Regards,
Damian
