Yes, you'll need to get backuppc to reread the configuration file.

Two observations though:

First, I think the 'link' line could be rewritten thus (bypassing the
customization step):
'link' => eval { my $a = CGI::url(); $a =~ s{:/+}{://nouser:nopass\@}; $a },

Second, I tried it on my backuppc. If I use the back button I find that
I'm still logged in. It seems that what that link does it just to redirect
you to a nouser AT example DOT com address which has no perms, but
if you go back to your regular example.com address (without the
nouser@ part) you still have your logged-in perms. I guess you
can't really log yourself out like this.

The 'net used to be run by smart people; now many sites are run by
idiots. So SAD... (Sites that do spam filtering on mails sent to the
abuse contact need to be cut off the net...)
