The files you would need to get at are on the SYS volume, under a hidden
folder, _netware.sys or something like that (It has been a long time,
forgive me) and in versions 5.0 and below, the only way to get at them
was to load up a program on the server console (Physical access) and
then view this directory via a command shell that you launched.

Or using the backup NDS tool built in to get a backup.ds file, but I am
not exactly sure about how successful this is.

As of version 5.1 and above( I believe, again, it has been a while)
there is no mechanism to get at this directory in any way that I am
aware of.

Previous versions, use the shell tools, copy the files to another
directory, then use Simple Nomad's Pandora to brute force the passwords.
