Secure Channel between domain controllers

In my Windows 2000 AD domain. A domain controller will not replicate with the any other DC. There are a number of errors in E-log of local DC, about Secure Channels and not being able to bind to the DC, etc. On the Global Catalog, a Netlogon error appears - along the lines; there is no trust between the two DC's.

I need to reset the Secure Channel password I think, but have tried to use NETDOM and NLTEST. When I try and reset the SC password - the error is something about an account doesn't exist in the SAM database the task completed unsuccesfully. (I am right in saying tha NETDOM is for DC/Workstation trust? only)

I have made sure that there is an account on both the non-replicating DC and on the GC. Both are in domain controllers OU, etc

More info - It all started when I had a tempory server called INTRANET on one domain running on XP Pro. I then created a new domain with a server called INTRANET. I renamed the temp to INTRANET1 - it put it's self in the DC OU for some reason.

I hope this gives you some idea of whats going on. Sorry its so unclear (tired) but any help would be great. I have to get this fixed but its fustrating. Thanks
