As I remember in the past there is an option of installing server and
client in the same or different directories. You should look if you
haven't 2 dsm.opt in your nt4 and updated only one when customizing. 1
dsm.opt for client backup and 1 dsm.opt in another directory for
administrative. Maybe this can help.
