DNS in AD not synchornizing to all DC's

I have a win2k domain that has 3 sites, all sites are under the same domain name. Site A has 2 dc's, site B has 2 dc's, and site c has one dc(small office). Site A was the first site on the domain (and holds all 5 master roles), followed by Sites B and C. In DNS for site b and c exist all computer in the domain while site A lists only the computers in that site. The weird thing is that I added a computer to the domain in site A and yet it's DNS information showed up in the DNS on server in site B and C. I looked at the dns server in site A that and there are no errors pertaining to DNS in the log. The only thing I can ping by name in sites B and C from site A are the dc's, nothing else seems to exist (except by IP). Was wondering if anyone else had come across this or could assist in any way.

Thanks.
 
Thanks for the suggestion. I have tried using replmon. In replmon under site A, there are only the servers in that site, but under Site B there are the server's in that site plus the DC in Site A. If I go into AD sites & services, the DC in Site A shows it has a connection with the DC in site B (the opposite is true as well). Why isn't the DC in Site B showing up as a replication partner with the DC in site A in replmon and how would I go about fixing this?

Thanks.
