Problem with BIND DNS and AD

I have set up a BIND 9.2.3 DDNS on a solaris 8 platform.
We have a W2k3 AD server that can register it self with BIND server
with no issues. However we build a W2k server as a test to see it it
can add it self to the domain. It registers itself to the AD server,
but does not register in DDNS - we point it to the BIND DNS server as
its primary DNS - am I doing it wrong?
When rebooting the W2K server - I see the following warning in the
event viewer but when I try a ipconfig /registerdns - nothing happens.

The system failed to register network adapter with settings:

   Adapter Name : {5280D8CF-8974-4229-BE55-79D381DA494B}
   Host Name : chgdcinet3
   Adapter-specific Domain Suffix : diamondcluster.net
   DNS server list :
     10.1.1.30
   Sent update to server : None
   IP Address(es) :
     172.20.2.90

 The cause of this DNS registration failure was because of DNS server
failure. This may be due to a zone transfer that has locked the DNS
server for the applicable zone that your computer needs to register
itself with.

 
Any one have any ideas?
