First, look at an LDIF dump of o=netscaperoot and your userdatabase (I 
suggest using db2ldif:)

./db2ldif -U -s o=netscaperoot -a /tmp/nsroot.ldif

Also do the same for your user suffix e.g. -s "dc=example,dc=com"
Use -U to disable line wrapping, which makes using grep easier.

Then, just grep for uid=admin to see which entries have an aci which 
explicitly calls out uid=admin, and which groups have uid=admin added to 
them.

Then, do the same for your dse.ldif, in the entries and children of "", 
cn=schema, cn=config, and cn=monitor.   dse.ldif is already in ldif 
format, so you can just grep it.
