How do I set the admin password?

I have reset the admin password on many Splunk instances but this one is hung up for some reason, please see the screen shot the Set password box never goes away and this is preventing me from adding this instance to the Distributed Search list on another machine

Encountered the following error while trying to save: Status 401 while sending public key to search peer https://legspkds01:8089: Remote login has been disabled for 'admin' with the default password. Either set the password, or override by changing the 'allowRemoteLogin' setting in your server.conf file.
