Fix the SSH keys.

You must follow the plentiful guides available to get passwordless ssh 
login working from the backuppc user to the remote system. Normally you 
would ssh as root on the remote system, but if not, then you either need 
to ensure the user you use has permission to access the files you want 
to backup, or else you need to setup sudo to provide permissions. I 
would strongly suggest you get a basic login as root working first, 
before trying more complicated options.
