Wasn't there a recent extension to ClientNameAlias which allows

Duno, Adam, I'm still in v.3 for production use and no time to explore
v.4 (is it now rock-stable ?); this might change when Debian Stretch
will become the new stable (around mid june ?), but I must see about
solid version migration before any change can take place.
This seems a perfect use case for that, adding the local IP and the
remote IP as the two aliases, hence only a single "host" in backuppc,
consistent ordered backups all in one place.
This is really a nice feature, especially in this case.
PS, this probably only applies to BPC4.x and I forget what version the
OP is using.
He did not state it, just that he use mageia5, which, from their site
is a fork of mandriva - might work the same as rh: one click and it
installs a hexabyte "package" with no other choice *<;-{p)
