Hi, I'm battling to do rsync backups for remote hosts. 
As you can see below the nslookup finds the host but it doesn't seem to pass 
the ip address to ssh/rsync. Is this a bug?


$> /usr/share/backuppc/bin/BackupPC_dump -v dalek

---
NetBiosInfoGet: success, returning host dalek, user dalek
full backup started for directory /home
started full dump, share=/home
Running: /usr/bin/ssh -q -x -l root 
dalek /usr/bin/rsync --server --sender --numeric-ids --perms --owner --group 
--devices --links --times --block-size=2048 --recursive -D --ignore-times . 
/home/
Xfer PIDs are now 12711
xferPids 12711

cmdSystemOrEval: about to system /bin/ping -c 1 192.168.0.17
cmdSystemOrEval: finished: got output PING 192.168.0.17 (192.168.0.17) 56(84) 
bytes of data.
64 bytes from 192.168.0.17: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.228 ms
----

When I run the rsync part on its own it says unknown host. Running 

$>ssh -l root 192.168.0.17  whoami
I get "root"

The rsync versions are the same on both hosts.
