Dcpromo failed with "Directory object not found"

Done in-place upgrade on PDC without any problem. Setup another Windows 2000
member server, dcpromo it as nother domain controller but failed with
"Directory object not found". This is due to missing built-in administrator
account - event log show that it was deleted due to duplicate. Is there a way
to fix this missing account?
If not, can I roll-back to pre-AD NT PDC? To do this, will need to properly
demote AD (last domain controller) as already have 4 other domains in the
forest. How can I do this without losing accounts and folders access rights
across NT domains?
Another option is to setup another domain and use ADMT to migrate users but
not sure of the implication. This domain host our internal FTP, will FTP
access rights of other domain users be loss in the migration? How to migrate
Exchange 5.5 server?
Thanks for your advice.
