The easy way is to name the host (in BackupPC) with the IP Address.  Otherwise, use the ClientNameAlias.

I am not sure I understand this but it doesn't work in my configuration. Server is on network 192.168.0
while client has IP 192.168.55.1.
I don't see  a way to configure this IP into bakupPC.
When run from browser with dhcp set, backupPC finds wrong IP, that is the gateway IP: 192.168.0.225 which is a router to VPN netowrk. manual ping to client works. nmblookup -A 192.168.55.1 get proper response.
If run with dhcp false, then there is no way to set IP address.
Automatic network scanning doesn't work into other networks. Don't know why. It works if client is on 192.168.0 network, only. And automatic backup works when dhcp is set. Scanning the network finds my client laptop.
Somehow I can't do nightly backup. Manual backup wouldn't schedule, automatic works only from my office, during working hours, of course.
