I ran this and tried my troubleshooting line. It still hung, just at a new spot in the code.
>>>>>>>>>>>>> snip <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

su -s /bin/bash backuppc
ssh -l root [changed to myremotehostname]
exit
Then I ran this and tried and the verbose hung, but 'top' showed sshd activity. So, I waited and in 30 seconds or so, backup verbose info started flying up the screen.

Now, let me see if I understand this . .

su -s /bin/bash backuppc    superuser switches to bash running under backuppc user.
ssh -l root [changed to myremotehostname]     ssh logins in as root to remote host (client to be backed up) and in process ssh (from client/remotehost) asks for root password and decides okay "I will let you back me up next time you run your troubleshooting command."

Thank you so much for your help!
