If you're not using mod_perl there is no need to run Apache as the  
backuppc user. Also, the s-bit is not really needed if you run Apache  
as backuppc. I suggest using the plain CGI mode by the way as it's  
easier to setup and since I don't spend a lot of time in the web  
interface I don't really notice the difference actually.

That seems wrong. If  /var/www/html is your document root then the  
images should be available at /, not /html.
