I have a W2K Server with AD, wins, DNS and DHCP. I have added a secondary Windows 2003 server and want to set up DNS and DHCP for fault tolerance. On the new Server I installed DNS, and immediately it shows the current DNS settings under this new server. But I have not configured anything yet. How do I add this as a secondary dns server, as when I work through the wizard it tells me its already set up. I have checked nslookup, but the server is not being shown.

Any ideas? Do I need to delete what i being shown on the new server and start again? I am concerned that it may affect the exisiting server?
I think I have to set this up as a new zone..but again its not allowing me to do that...
Thanks in advance...
