The admin user is not "special" like the old "SUPERVISOR" user from 
previous NetWare versions. Basically, the thing about the admin that is 
special is that this user has full object and property rights at 
[Root]of the tree.  If there is another user that has been granted full 
rights at [Root] then this user can simply create a new user 
called ADMIN.  If nobody has [Root] rights then I believe Novell can 
help you.  You'll have to call them and prove that you are the 
administrator and are a licensed NetWare 4 user.

This is a lesson in why not to simply make the other admin accounts 
ADMIN equivalent but rather you should explicitly grant those other 
admins all rights to the [Root] object.

Good luck.
