I recall having had the same problem. As I remember, I fixed it by (as root),
switching from AfterStep to AnotherLevel and back to AfterStep (there may have
been a restart of X somewhere in there, but I can't recall right now). At that
point, I had the full complement of menu items. It may be that AfterStep grabs
the AnotherLevel menu items and creates its own menu from them.
I checked my system, and /usr/share/afterstep doesn't have the Administration
item, but the user trees do, so the item's you're missing most likely have to be
created by some other means, e.g. a switch to AnotherLevel.
Hope it works!
