| First see if perhaps the SYSTEM or some other account is a member, do any other
accounts show up by SHOW MEMBER?
Notes conferences can be hacked - I've done it - but it's not a procedure that
can be described easily in a notes conference.

As far as I know, there is no specific functionality to deal with this.
The cleanest option is to reinstate the account.
If that were impossible because of lack of cooperation from the other
cluster or whatever then
you could hack your NCP database temporarily to believe that a machine
that you control is the one that hosts the moderator
or
you could hack (e.g. using PATCH/ABS) the conference file to believe
that a local account is a moderator. It would be easiest if the remote
NODE::USER had length <= 12.
You might want to try the NOTES notes conference since this problem has
surely come up before.
As a general point (yes, I realise it's too late) local SYSTEM should
always be a moderator or if not, at the very least you should have two
moderators.

| NOTES installs a command procedure SYS$MANAGER:NOTES$MOVE_CONFERENCE.COM - one
of the things this procedure can do is set the "last moderator" to anything
you want. See the comments for details.

PAN (see conference ROCKS::PAN) allows you to reset the last
moderator as well.

| The NOTES saveset contains PASSKEY.EXE which will allow the SYSTEM account on
the local node to set the last moderator to any account you want. You then
access the conference with this account and add a permanent moderator entry.
It's quite openly documented in one of the NOTES notes conferences.
Using it is fairly straightforward. Assuming you put the executable in
SYS$MANAGER: then do:
$ MC SYS$MANAGER:PASSKEY -m node::SYSTEM NOTES$LIBRARY:conference
Now access the conference as a moderator and set up node::account as a new
moderator.

I plucked PASSKEY.EXE from the saveset and executed
as instructed in the previous reply....Worked like a
charm......that's for all the advice folks.
