we have only one site. we already have 13508 errors but that's probably something else. cheers.
Error 13508 means the DC cannot become a Domain controller. Check if the syslog folder and netlogon folder have been shared by the DC. If they haven't it sounds like some of the ports are closed that enable the DC to replicate ( probably due to a firewall).

Try this link it will tell you what ports need to be open and ways around a firewall.

There is also a link to a utility on this page called Portquery that will allow you to test for the open ports you need.
