Hi Guys and Gals,

I've been running BackupPC for a couple of years now.  I started when I
first moved my computing to Linux.  It was really tough getting it up
the first time because I was dumber than a newbie!  But once up and
running, it works great.

Anyway, I am faced with having to rebuild the system.  All has gone
pretty well up to the point of creating my ssh keys.  I'm using the same
instructions that I used for both the original build on Fedora and the
long running system on Ubuntu 8.04 (LTS).  The problem is that when I
try to scp the keys between machines, the root password is not accepted.

On both the server and the client, I created a root password.  On both,
su and entering the password elevates my session to root.  On the
server, I switch to 'backuppc' user and create the key pair.  When I try
to scp the public key to the client, the root password is not accepted.

I spent the entire day running between the machines trying to get this
to work.  I also have the transcript of the last time I set it up and
cannot find anywhere that I am doing different.

Does anyone have an idea what I am missing?  -- ken
