Thanks for the idea, unfortunately same result.

   2024-04-05 15:28:10 Can't find host myhost.com via NS and netbios
   2024-04-05 15:28:10 can't ping  (client = myhost.com); exiting

I also tried this

   $Conf{PingCmd} = '/var/lib/backuppc/test.sh';

Where test.sh is +x and contains

   #!/usr/bin/bash
   echo `/usr/bin/date` >> /var/lib/backuppc/testlog.txt

After restarting backuppc (and the whole server for good measure, since this problem is starting to feel weird), I tried backing up that host.  No output in the text file.

However using sudo to execute the file as backuppc user works as expected.
