As Les said, you don't schedule explicit times for BackupPC to work. You
schedule times when it *shouldn't* work (which is usually what you're really
after anyway).

If you really need to make a job go off at a specific time; consult the
backuppc wiki on sourceforge, and there should be some instructions there
for how to schedule it in cron.
