Thanks Richard and George,
Here is what I have tired:
I tried restoring from both:
1. Export/Import from ldif file:
       backup all the subtrees and get a lot of rejects on this restore

How did you do the import?

2. Backup/Restore:
Backup creates a directory of my choosing with 2 ldif files and 3 subderectories:
               userRoot NetscapeRoot and one more subdir for my app
                all 3 subdirs have db4 files

Can you post an ls -lR of the backup directory?

Restoring: if I specify the top leve back directory (same as I use during backup process) I get error 53 (cannot read dir)

Check the server error log.

Restore will take 3 subdirectires (netacpre root or userRoot) and will run OK. but then it stops working, you can not log in or on restart admin server would not start.

    Backup creates a binary backup of your entire database.
    Export creates an LDIF (ASCII) dump of the database you specify
    (userRoot or NetscapeRoot).

    Can you provide more information about what directory you put your
    backup in, what directory you told it to restore from, etc.
