The only other thing I can  think of is that routers may cache
ethernet MAC/IP matches for sorme time and not connect to a
replacement machine with the same IP.  However this would only apply
if there is a router between the backuppc server and the target, and
the arp cache should only be kept for 20 minutes or so.  Can you use
smbclient from the backuppc server to connect manually?
