virtual domains

hello

I have server2003 enterprise running as a lone domain controller for a single domain. i recently installed vmware on the domain controller and through vmware installed another sever, creating a new domain in the same forest as my 1st.

when both servers are up and running, i can connect to the 1st domains active directory through the 2nd server but not the other way round. i get an error "the specified domain either does not exist or could not be contacted".

Is this down to vmware or my server1/server2 setup?

1st try at virtualization so im a bit of an amateur

thanks
