This was going to be my first response as well. But I have to admit I found myself in the same position as the OP. I read the BackupPC documentation (or as much as I thought was necessary,) installed and configured the system, and was perplexed that it didn't work. I've learned a lot about SSH since then, but I found the documentation in BackupPC assumed that the administrator has already configured the method that it can talk to the clients with. I requested access to the Wiki so I could add this info but got sidetracked and haven't had the time to update it. I just intended to add a preface that said something like: "Note: Before installing BackupPC, be sure you have configured a method for your computers to securely talk with each other such as pre-shared SSH keys." >> And, please, excuse my English, I'm from Spain. > > Your English is excellent!
