Hello,

I've now several times tried to install backuppc, but I always failed. 
Now I tried the backuppc-3 ebuild for gentoo, with the vhosts use flag set.
I'm a bit surprised, that I can reach, the CGI Script from localhost:80
(wich then leads to this error:

Permission denied: exec of '/var/www/localhost/cgi-bin/BackupPC_Admin'
failed 
You are probably familiar with this error.

Doesn't vhost mean, that it should install on a different port, as 8080 for
instance??

Anyway, I went through the faq and it suggests to run Backuppc as the
backuppc user and as the www-servers user (which *I think* is "apache"):
vdr01 ~ # su backuppc
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /root $ /var/www/localhost/cgi-bin/BackupPC_Admin
bash: /var/www/localhost/cgi-bin/BackupPC_Admin: Permission denied
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /root $ exit
exit
vdr01 ~ # su apache
vdr01 ~ # /var/www/localhost/cgi-bin/BackupPC_Admin

<div id="Content">
<div class="h1">Error: Wrong user: my userid is 0, instead of 107(backuppc)
</div>

I must note that su apache does not seem to "do" anything.

Do I have to set additional use flags? Do you have any other suggestionst?
I'm out of Ideas. I've really been trying hard to get backuppc installed,
and I've given up several times. But it just seems like the perfect app for
me.

Greetings,
Hendrik
