Cannot connect to a win2k3 dns server through MMC

I was having some replication issues relating to dns so i ran "netdiag /fix".  I let it run for about 30 hours and then ended the task.  we have about 50 dns entries total most of which get propagated through dhcp so it really should not have taken that long.

I can now replicate between dc's just fine, but i cannot connect to the dns server through the dns MMC.

DNS starts and restarts just fine without throwing any flags or indicators that something is wrong.  
The log files dont suggest any issues.  
the server resolves to its name just fine when i ping it.
netdiag /fix runs now in a matter of seconds and does not report any issues.
the dns server is AD integrated

thanks for the help
