Yes, it is possible. See
<http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/faq/BackupPC.html#item__conf_serverport_>.
I don't know if it'll be much faster though. What is the typical load on
your BackupPC server?
Ok this server port setting is ok, backuppc is now listening on the server.

But how do i get the client to connect to that place?
i have set $Conf{ServerHost} to the correct server, and i added that secret message.

But what else is needed? does the client need the same config files, these for the hosts, the hosts file itself?

i'm running backuppc for around 7 servers, this is all working perfectly
but the webinterface is verry slow, it sometimes takes up to 5 minuts to
open up the webinterface.
 
So now i was thinking, maybe it would be good to host the webinterface
on a different host inside the network, this has a couple off extra
advantages
- first off all a apache server less to maintain
- second the webinterface could be much faster
- third, the backuppc server has all the memory and cpu to use for
backing up only.
 
So now my question, is this possible or do you guys have another idea on
how we can solve our problem?

Well almost 24/24 its between 4 and 8
 Large pool? How many hosts are you backing up?
  
5 hosts, one with around 400 GB data the others are just for config backupps, so thats not worth the space
We want to add 3 other hosts but we just' can't a backup (400G) now typicly takes around 40 hours.
I've found that the web interface is not such a heavyweight, but all the
dumping, compressing, pooling, linking, etc. can be a heavy load for a
system.
