This is sort of a .htpasswd <-> BackupPC compatibility thing. You have a
permissions error. Try opening up your config.pl file (via console, with
root priveleges), look for the variables $Conf{CgiAdminUserGroup} and
'$Conf{CGIAdminUsers}', and read the associated documentation. Also, you
might want to try using 'backup_admin' instead; since the username values
are space-delineated, and I can't make any guarantees on how that field is
parsed right now.
Adios,
