Without knowing about your bandwidth availability between main & remote sites, I will just throw out a couple of options which you can determine the practicality for your scenario.
- VPN or some sort of remote tunneling to get a BackupPC at Remote to talk to the servers at Main
- Remote storage server doing a rsync copy of the BackupPC host data which is located at main. Recovery if necessary will require a dump of the remote data back to a "local" BackupPC if the original is affected.
- Remotely mounted data store (NFS, etc) from the remote site to a local BackupPC at the main site.
- Since Main can get to DR/Remote, Main can initiate a data tunnel/VPN-type connection over which Remote's access run (DNS/Hostname tricks can effect the necessary connectivity required).
others will probably chip in with more options.......

I am trying to set up backups to a DR site. Unfortunately, the way the
connection is with the DR site, the main can get to DR, but DR cannot
get back to the main site. Is there a way to make backuppc initiate
from the main site and push the data through to the DR site (to
fulfill the off-site storage requirements)? Maybe a master backuppc
installation on the main site pushing to a slave on the DR side?
Looking for ideas,
