The default rsync command uses rsync over ssh. For the localhost, SSH
isn't need. Edit the RsyncCLientCmd for this host, and put something
like this:

/usr/bin/sudo $rsyncPath $argList+

(idem for the restore command)

Then allow backuppc user to run rsync with sudo without password
(visudo)

it'll be a lign like this:

backuppc ALL=(root) NOPASSWD:/usr/bin/rsync
