Hi all,
 
I have BackupPC3.0.0 installed on a Fedora Core 4 system and I've updated
File::Rsyncd to 0.68 as required.
 
I'm trying to get a backup of a Windows XP Pro box using rsycnd.
 
I've installed rsyncd on the WinXP box and I've successfully backed up the
first of several PC's.
 
I've been struggling with this setup for about a week now and can't seem to
get the CGI interface to work.  Below is the error reported from the
browser:
-----------------------
Error: Wrong user: my userid is 48, instead of 103(backuppc) 

This script needs to run as the user specified in $Conf{BackupPCUser}, which
is set to backuppc. 


This is an installation problem. If you are using mod_perl then it appears
that Apache is not running as user backuppc. If you are not using mod_perl,
then most like setuid is not working properly on BackupPC_Admin. Check the
permissions on /var/www/cgi-bin//BackupPC_Admin and look at the
documentation. 
-----------------------

I have tried everything I can think of to overcome this issue, but haven't
had any success.  It appears from the error that the setuid is not working
or mod_perl is not configured correctly.  I've checked permissions on all
files and directories related to BackupPC and have set them appropriately as
owner = backuppc and group = apache.

I've checked and verified that perl5.8.6 and sperl5.8.6 are installed on the
Fedora Core 4 server.

I have other web applications running on this server, i.e., SquirrelMail,
SugarCRM, etc., so it would be difficult to running as a user other than
apache.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.
