You must be able to ssh from the user account (backuppc) to the root
user of the target system without entering a password.
You should be in the backuppc user environment, i.e.:
normal_user: $ sudo su - backuppc
backuppc_user: $ ssh root@host
If this doesn't work you won't get any further with backuppc.
NOTE: you will need to accept the RSA key on attempt to SSH to the
remote box.
