It is almost always a DNS problem -- but
before we discuss DNS in general, please note
that SINGLE LABEL zone/domain names are
a "bad thing" (TM) and it appears you have one of
those, i.e., JEWELCONSULTING rather than
JEWELCONSULTING.com or
JEWELCONSULTING.something
All about my DC:
couldnt find this
"nltest /dsregdns /server
C-ServerNameGoesHere" on win2k.
no nltest/dsregdns (dsregdns was not an option in nltest (win2k),
can I use ipconfig/registerdns? so I did that instead.

Also useful may be running DCDiag on each DC, sending the
output to a text file, and searching for FAIL, ERROR, WARN.
