root password known, admin password lost

If there are NetWare boxes in the tree you can use some utilities to
generate a user or set a current user as admin, but otherwise your best
bet is to call the company. Giving up old credentials should be a
no-brainer. The last resort is to call Novell and have them fix the issue
for you.

Good luck.
