Hi Keith,

Thanks for your speedy reply.

I realize now after seeing your reply what the actual issue is.

I run backuppc using the apache user and use sudo to execute some of the commands needed by backuppc (like ssh, rsync) for predump commands. Probably not the best way to do it but its working and the server is dedicated purely for backups. The issue here was I hadn't added rsync as one of those sudo commands.

Thnx again for the reply.

Hi Garith

  
Is there anything else I could check?
I realize I should run this command as apache for a true result but I 
don't see why this would change the result.
    

I would run the actual command as shown in the log file, and I'd run it as
user 'backuppc'. The actual command presumably starts with
'/usr/bin/ssh ...'
