Please post/send a copy of your configuration file in (sometimes)
/etc/backuppc/hostname.pl or /etc/BackupPC/hostname.pl etc...

Without seeing the whole config file, or at least the include/exclude,
share name sections, it will be very difficult to help, other than to
say "You have an error with the configuration of one of those settings".
