If they are both on the same domain,  demote one to a BDC.

If not,  then provided you have enough disk space on the one that you want to
be the NEW BDC to the domain,  re-install NT in a new directory.  This will
give you two 'Windows NT Server' choices at boot.  Make the new installation
a BDC or member server of the now singular PDC.  Assuming all is well,  edit
out the offending info in BOOT.INI and delete the information from the second
hard drive.

I'm not 100% sure this would work,  BTW... It is,  however,  how I'm going to
attempt it this weekend when I fix a similar problem!
