Hello all and thanks in advance for the help.
I created a domain [ at home ] with 2 domain controllers DC1 and DC2
I changed the built-in administrator name Administrator to WinAdmin on DC1
and reset the password. The name change was replicated to DC2. My issue is :

When I log on using WinAdmin on DC1, I have no problems but on DC2 I get the
message that the system cannot log me on and that I need to check my
credentials.

Why is that happening ? Any ideas ?

Thanks again

Most likely a failure to replicate.

Check a complete "DCDiag /c" for FAIL and WARN messages.
 
Thanks Herb ... that worked ...
