Systems Enngineer

I added a DC (domain controller) in one of out site office, however after dcpromo and all steps are completed the dns looks like its not working.
It has taken the sites, AD objects, and also DNS records with zones, however when I put nslookup it does not show the server name.Instead it shows
Default Server :localhost
Address : 127.0.0.1

The VPN is up and i can reach the other sites.Kindly assist on how to resolve the issue.
Thanks a many times.

Can you verify the DNS IP are added correctly or not?

All information are correct .And moreover the server is not UNKNOWN its coming LOCALHOST

Also i can connect to different sites.
Thanks.
This new DC is part of DNS Servers?
On the nic of the new domain controller ,  for the 1st dns ip entry, point it to itself.  Give the second preferred dns entry the ip of another domain controller.
The settings are the same, even when I try to replicate it doesnot go forward.
