I added another DC to my domain. Servers are 2003 R2 and domain is 2003. I
accidentally misspelled the host name when installing it so after it was
complete I renamed it. Now I noticed under the domain controllers container
it doesn't have the correct name and I cannot manage it. Is there a way to
fix this short of re-installing server 2003?

You can rename a DC in a 2003 domain. The main thing to be concerned about
is propagation of the change. Netdom is the way to do it:

If the rename failed you may have something else wrong. I would start with
the regular dcdiag netdiag diagnostics to see what it could be,
