Yes, the key is protected by a pretty lengthy passphrase. I'm using
keychain to manage the ssh-agent process for caching the passphrase.
Everything running under the BackupPC user (backuppc) has access to that
ssh-agent process. This is why I was thinking that when I try to do a
manual backup from the web interface, access to backuppc's ssh-agent is
denied. Makes sense, right?
