Our server is running on Novell Netware 4.11, and as I try to delete the objects (user accounts) I accidentally deleted the user "Admin" in the nwadmn3x executable. Will someone please help me recover or restore the user "Admin" back to our system? I don't want to format the hard drive and reinstall again the system. Thanks in advance.

Ups, you should alway look twice, before deleting user accounts.
There is a small tool to create a new admin account.
It's called ADMINADD.NLM.
Copy the tool to a disk, go to the servers console and start the program.
E.g.:
a:\adminadd admin your_new_admin_password

This will create a new admin account at the root of your NDS tree.

Here is a link where to find the tool.
