I had some problem with user mapping drives so ran dsrepair. I used the
"Advanced Options Menu" and then selected "Repair Local DS Database"
and selected "Yes" for all options except for last one about Exit
Automatically. Then it gave me 570 errors. So I ran dsrepair again and
now it is showing "Unable to copy DIB from NDT to NTD. Error 168" and
cannot continue.

Do you know how I can fix this problem?

Thanks
Paul

Try rebooting the server, start with server -ndb and run dsrepair again. See:

Well, the first important thing is:

Never ever run dsrepair like this again. You are runnign dsreapir with
options
of which you have no grasp of what they do and how dangerous they can be if used incorrectly.
The error you get is almost a natural consequenec of your bad usage of
dsrepair. One of the options you set to yes is the option to use a
temporary database during repair, and once NDS is running on a temporary
database, when dsrepair is run again in the same session, it can't create
yet another temporary database.

What you can do is restart your server and pray that your NDS database
comes back. If it doesn't you will have to reinstall NDS on your server or
call Novell technical support for a dialin.

The following TID also refers to your problem:
