Two ideas: 1. Try "su backuppc" as root since it shouldn't ask for a password. 2. Make sure the password is right by resetting it, "passwd backuppc". On a side note, system accounts shouldn't have sh

I've been trying to figure out a way to prevent having to allow shell access for backuppc on the clients it needs to backup through ssh/rsync. I consider the backuppc account on the clients to be a s
