I am getting these errors on a Domain Controller that I
just added to a new site in an existing domain with
several sites and 4 existing domain controllers:

"The attempt to establish a replication link failed with
the following status:
Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password."

"The machine password for this machine is incorrect and
should be corrected."

How do I correct this password problem?

Many thanks,

Jak

If possible the best might be to demote (If it won't let you dcpromo
/forceremoval), remove from the domain, rejoin domain and repromote. Don't
want any issues related to your DC creeping in.
