Where to Download/find Setpwd.exe?
I am trying to change the Recovery Console Administrator password on a Domain Controller.
Articles referenced are here:

and here:

I need this the Setpwd.exe utility, but cannot find it anywhere. I checked the "Microsoft Maze" of downloads and could not find it. I searched the I386 folder on the Windows 2003 Server CD and it did not show up.
Please advise.

WIN32 Error Code: 0x6ba
Error Message: The RPC server is unavailable
I checked the Application Event logs and found that I have many Even 13 errors.
Source: AutoEnrollment
Description:
Automatic certificate enrollment for local system failed to enroll for one Domain Controller certificate (0x800706ba). The RPC server is unavailable.
I found this: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q224370
I think my cause is more like the 3rd of the 3. An RPC channel cannot be established.
The question is, how do I establish an RPC channel?

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
