No permission for this operation 1

I'm in the same boat as others, a person left without sharing the caroot password. I have searched for the solution, many say run authsetup /p to set the password to blank. Below is what I get. I am logged on as local administrator. Any suggestions?

C:\Program Files\ComputerAssociates\ARCserve>authsetup /p
AuthSetup : Initializing the authentication database
AuthSetup : Password =******( )
AuthSetup : Domain services are running.
AuthSetup : Authentication services are running.
AuthSetup (403): Connect to Domain server. (iter=1).
AuthSetup (426): Connect to authentication server==ROC-BKUP1 (iter=1).
AuthSetup (520): ca_auth -equiv <localNTaccount> =235 failed ... reason : No permission for this operation

AuthSetup : Terminating (No Permission/Invalid password)

Hi

- Go into the data folder in BAB
- Then the discovery folder
- You will see the server name folder..Rename it

- do a cstart in the command prompt in BAB directory to start the services
