Resolution
Extend the schema (by running DNIPINST) from the server that holds the Master replica of the ROOT partition. Preferably, this should be a NetWare5 server. Also see TID 7002488
***CAUTION: DO NOT run DNIPINST -R on a NetWare 6.5 server! It can cause the deletion of all the group objects in your tree.*** See KB 10090165 - DNIPINST -R removes all group objects in the tree.

Additional Information
The server the customer was working on did not have a replica of the root partition.
NOTE: DNIPINST -R removes ALL DNS and DHCP objects from the ENTIRE tree. If you have any functioning DNS or DHCP servers in the tree you should not use this option.
