That means that you are not finding the backuppc command... you will
need to work out where backuppc commands are installed. Try:
locate backuppc_dump
or
locate BackupPC_dump
(I think locate is case-insensitive)
You might also try something like:
rpm -ql backuppc | grep -i dump
See "man rpm" to find out how to get a list of files installed by a
package.. -q should be query). Mind you, it is a very long time since I
used rpm, so my command line might be wrong.
If all else fails, this will work:
find / |grep -i backuppc_dump

When you eventually find the correct command to execute, you can then
(as the backuppc user) run the command as follows:
BackupPC_dump -v -f hostname
You do not specify the sharename, or put any \ or / on the command line.
You specify the hostname, and backuppc will work out the shares from
your config files.

Also, hostnames should always be stored in your backuppc configs as
lower case, and probably used as lower case. (This is just my
suggestions, whether it makes a difference or not I do not know).
Technically, hostnames should be case in-sensitive, but using all lower
case everywhere should help rule it out as a problem.

So, find out where the backuppc commands are installed, run it with just
the hostname after the -v -f, and then send us the results.

Adam
