Hmmm. It appears that the file mode is not being interpreted correctly by rsync. First thing to try: replace --devices with -D in both $Conf{RsyncArgs} and $Conf{RsyncRestoreArgs}. Failing that, try just a smaller subdirectory and you could try setting $Conf{XferLogLevel} to around 5 or so to get more detailed information. If you are still unsuccesful, try tar (either changing the XferMethod or manually just by running BackupPC_tarCreate and pipe it into something like ssh -l root HOST tar -C /somewhere -xpf -").
