Impossible to answer unless you tell us what kind of error(s) you are getting.<br />

How are you starting the Time Machine backup on the old Mac, describe (or screenshot) the error(s) you are getting. Do you see any changes in the filesystem you have created on the W10 machine when you attempt the backup? What further steps did you take on the W10 machine besides creating a share?

The Apple Server has 16-TB of Data and there is no backup.  I brought a Windows 10 Computer with 24-TB of diskspace to run Time Machine.
Created Share on Drive with All Rights including Everyone and added them to Security Tab.
Made Login the Same as Apple server
Installed SMB 1.0  On Win-10 Computer and rebooted machine
all 5 other Mac's can easily login to the Win-10 Computer and add files to the Share
What am I missing on this old MAC?

Trying to backup Old Apple Server OS X

Operating systems perform basic tasks, such as recognizing input from the keyboard, sending output to the display screen, keeping track of files and directories on the disk, and controlling peripheral devices such as disk drives and printers. For large systems, the operating system makes sure that different programs and users running at the same time do not interfere with each other. The operating system is also responsible for security, ensuring that unauthorized users do not access the system. Operating systems provide a software platform on top of which other programs, called application programs, can run.

Operating Systems

Apple's early computers ran on a variety of operating systems, including a Pascal version and one based on CP/M, before releasing its ProDOS with the advent of its 16-bit computer. With the release of the Lisa, which had its own OS, Apple and computing entered the graphical age; it was followed by the Macintosh, which offered a series of "System" operating systems. Other Mac operating systems included PowerPC until Apple acquired NeXT and folded it into the Mac OS. Current operating systems for Apple devices are Mac OS-X and iOS.

Apple OS

Mac OS X is the desktop operating system from Apple Inc., found on Macintosh computers. OS X consists of a Mach/BSD-based kernel, operating system interfaces primarily based on FreeBSD and additional frameworks (written in C, C++ and Objective-C providing user interface and application-level services.

Mac OS X

Apple devices including Macs, iPhones, iPods and iPad support standard wired and wireless networking technologies, but they also utilize custom applications and some special techniques for networking with each other and with non-Apple devices. Apple manufacturers the AirPort line of wireless networking products, and has its own networking protocols, AppleTalk and AFP (Apple Filing Protocol).
