the error I get is
"DNS name does not exist", "error code 0x0000232B RCODE_NAME_ERROR".
I can’t join new computers to the domain, shared folders ask for username and password (when they already had permissions to go in that folder) and it takes a long time to go in the shared folder. I had two DC, a main one PANTERA and the backup PANTERABACKUP. Our PANTERA server failed so we had to reinstall everything and used PANTERABACKUP to replicate back to PANTERA. Now PANTERABACKUP is down and this is when this problem started. I already followed instruction to remove PANTERABACKUP from the new PANTERA server, but I am still having the same problems. Checking the results on the dcdiag, netdiag and repadmin I found the following errors (I've attached the files also). Could anyone please let me know if there is something I can do to fix this. Thanks in advance.

This NC (DC=ForestDnsZones,DC=gruponisa,DC=com) is supposed to be
replicated to this server, but has not been replicated yet. This could
be because the replica set changes haven't replicated here yet. If
this problem persists, check replication of the Configuration
Partition to this server.

The following problems were found while verifying various important DN
references. Note, that these problems can be reported because of
latency in replication. So follow up to resolve the following
problems, only if the same problem is reported on all DCs for a given
domain or if the problem persists after replication has had
reasonable time to replicate changes.
