Usually you set the blackout period to cover the times you _don't_ want 
backups to run and let backuppc work out the details of when to run them.

That means it should do one every .01 day between fulls. You probably 
don't want 100 runs per day.

Normally you want it to wake up often.  It still won't run any backups 
until the IncrPeriod or FullPeriod has expired since the last one.

Does the host summary page show a failed attempt?  I usually start the 
first one manually from the host's web page to make sure everything is 
set up right and then expect the approximately-24-hour IncrPeriod 
schedule to make subsequent ones start around the same time.
