Normally the web server will be running as user apache and only able to
read the backuppc area because the cg-bin program runs setuid:
-r-sr-xr-- 1 backuppc apache 3981 Feb 7 16:13 BackupPC_Admin
You need to have the perl-suidperl package installed for that to work
and if you are running SElinux it adds another layer of permissions.
I'm not sure how to fix it other than turning it off (which requires a
reboot).
