No, the server originates the connections.  On the server, are you sure you can:
  su - backuppc   (you might need -s /bin/bash if backuppc doesn't have a login 
shell)
  ssh -l root target_host id

with no password/pass phrase prompts, and get back nothing but the output of 
the 
id command?

If that works, try running the rsync command as shown in the logs with the 
--server and --sender args removed (interrupt if it starts, but maybe you will 
see a better error message).
