  Just FYI, you could also put the port number in the ssh client config 
file.  Note, I don't think this will actually assist with the problem 
at hand...just suggesting it since managing one config file sure beats 
having to go in and manually edit "-p blah" into every ssh command line 
in the BackupPC config file.
  Create a file called ~/.ssh/config where ~ is the BackupPC user's home 
directory.  The '~/.ssh' directory should be mode 0700 and the 'config' 
file should be 0600.  Then put this in the config file:

Host myhost
  Port 8675309

  The token 'myhost' is a space-delimited list of names that you might 
use on the ssh command line.  In other words, you might have something 
like this:

Host myhost.mydomain.com myhost 1.2.3.4
  Port 8675309
