Default Joining Vista Clients to Windows Server 2003 AD Domain

I have a problem joining Vista Clients to Windows Server 2003 AD Domain. The
error message is "An attempt to resolve the DNS name of a DC in the domain
being joined has failed. Please verify this client is configured to reach a
DNS server that can resolve DNS names in the target domain."

The Windows XP clients are all connected to the domain without any problem.

Please help me out.
