can you setup sudo?
if so, you can put an /etc/sudoers file that allows the backuppc user to
sudo rsync without a password. then it would have permission to read the
files. security concern: now the backuppc user could rsync FROM somewhere
else to the DNS server, which means that if someone got access to the
backuppc user on that system, they could gain root access.
