DNS problem. Event ID:4015

I set up my Active Directory, DNS Server, and Exchange server on one machine.
After installing and configuring all the requirements needed in order for the system to work, i receive an error message on the DNS event viewer and states:

Description:
"The DNS server encountered a critical error from the Active Directory. Check that the Active Directory is funtioning properly. The extended error debug information (which may be empty)is "".The event data contains the error.

Is this the problem? If so see

If this is a new setup, ignore the above, run dcpromo, uninstall ad and dns, then redo the whole thing. Good luck.
