There are ways to get access to the server again with disk editors or NLMs 
(LASTHOPE.NLM) which can keep your old bindery files and replace them with a 
fresh one with only SUPERVISOR and GUEST logins with no passwords, just like a 
fresh install.  However, if your old ones are unusable and you've never run 
BINDFIX or similar that would've created snapshots of a functional bindery, 
you're still SOL at recreating a pre-corrupted version.  Also the odds are that 
if system hardware issues corrupted the bindery files, they've probably 
corrupted a lot more data, too, so you might not end up saving as much as you'd 
hoped once you regain access.

If you feel lucky, take a look at the Netware Hack FAQ at 
www.nmrc.org/faqs/netware/index.html

It'll give you the gory details for the hexedit route and name some of the 
various NLMs that might help you out without workstation login support.
