Found 2 problems. First i hadn't supplied the shell when doing su, so i 
was logged in as user root only. Second when logging in the first time, 
i have to add the host to known_hosts file. Once added, logs now show 
backup started :)

Thanks for the help.

One more question i have, when i see the backups being created by 
backuppc, to each directory name, i see f%2f prefixed to it. So this 
means i would always need backuppc running to restore files and hence a 
browser ? I can't use the normal rsync / command line to restore files 
for any machine :(

Thanks and Regards,

Anand
