Most of admin is useless, but if you forget to set a file binary (-kb) 
when you
add it, you need the admin command to set that option.  So you might 
consider
adding that one function back.  Also, if you use locking, you need the admin
command.  Really, admin is a big glob of unrelated functions and needs to be
split up, but that's another story.
