It's not clear how this helps solve my problem. 

As I indicated above, I need to backup other directories on 
other machines.

If I make the change you suggested, i.e., edit config.pl to read

       $Conf{RsyncShareName}='/domus/support'

then I'll be unable to backup my directory /domus/ken which is on 
another machine.

In fact, I won't be able to backup any other directory regardless of 
which machine it was on.
