Peter,

Unfortunately, at this time, Retrospect has not been certified for use on
Mac OS X Server. Though you can certainly run Retrospect on OS 8/9 and back
up a mounted OS X Server volume via AppleShare, running Retrospect in OS 8/9
emulation on an OS X Server is not supported. For more on our plans for OS X
support, please see

<http://www.dantz.com/index.php3?SCREEN=pr_osx>

That said, here's what I generally write to users experiencing error -5000.
Please contact us via one of the methods below if you have questions, though
as I said, your configuration is currently unsupported.

An error -5000 is an AppleShare-generated error, alerting you that you do
not have the required privileges to access the volume in question.

When you get this error, are you backing up a volume mounted on your desktop
via file sharing? Check your access privileges to this volume to make sure
it is completely accessible to you. If you are getting this error
consistently on one volume, try dismounting the volume, forgetting it from
the Volume Selection window, remounting the volume on your desktop, and try
the backup again. 

Another possibility is that you've got some kind of security software
installed on the machine you're backing up, and that that software is
preventing you from accessing a protected area of the hard drive. Check to
see if there is any software running on that machine fitting this
description and try disabling it.
