try
su backuppc -c id
what is your output?

did you create the user backuppc? if so, does backuppc have a home directory and does it have a default shell of /bin/bash?

what is the output of
su backuppc -c " /usr/local/backuppc/bin

/BackupPC -d"

just for fun, try to suid backuppc the init script.
