I found that there is seldom a mistake (never to date) using the password age in our environment.

If there was one I'd use Netdom to have the computer rejoin the domain.

code:
NETDOM JOIN machine /Domain:domain [/OU:ou path] [/UserD:user]
           [/PasswordD:[password | *]]
           [UserO:user] [/PasswordO:[password | *]]
           [/REBoot[:Time in seconds]]
But in our domain architecture "real" servers (not to be confused with someone running NT server at thier desk) are managed in their own domain where the data center admins would manage the domain closely. (i would hope)
