I believe I solved my issue of the hostname, I had to use the IP address for 
some reason, I cant use the FQDN.


Also, when I try to run a backup it fails after about 10 minutes, I'm receiving 
the following message...


2018-03-12 16:39:08 Got fatal error during xfer (rsync error: error in rsync 
protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(629) [generator=3.0.9.11])
2018-03-12 16:39:14 Backup aborted (rsync error: error in rsync protocol data 
stream (code 12) at io.c(629) [generator=3.0.9.11])

 I'm not sure on what that error means?

I don't see any copy command from the backuppc server to the client here?

Why dont you use

ssh-copy-id -i /var/lib/backuppc/.ssh/id_rsa.pub root@backuppc-client

(execute this as root user on the backuppc server!)


With kind regards
