For this communication, I choose to call this command a "troubleshoot
command" because it is the first suggestion to try from the backuppc
wiki page. The "-v" of the 'BackupPC_dump" portion gives verbose output,
so users can see what is happen and diagnose failure issues.
When I ran this command, the only thing I remember having to do, in each
case was, agree that the host was to be added to the 'known_host' file.
If I understand ssh correctly, that would be the client being added to
the server (backuppc server) 'known_host' file.
I guess I will read up on ssh. If I am correct, I did not scp anything
to the server form the client, essentially telling the server that this
client is acceptable.
I think if I study this issue, more intently, I will discover it is an
piece of the setup process I messed up.
But, thanks for your suggestion and thoughts. I appreciate it.
