Thanks Johan That's really helpful. It runs through to completion successfully but frustratingly I can't seem to access the web interface on http://backuppc/BackupPC_Admin
I've using the backuppc username and have tried the old password and tried resetting it with sudo htpasswd /etc/backuppc/htpasswd backuppc but without success. I have tried an apache restart and a reboot but no difference. I get the impression I'm missing something obvious. Is there anything else to do to get access to the CGI?
