I would still check out your keys. On your backuppc server, su to your
backuppc user and run:

ssh root@one-of-your-servers-to-be-backed-up whoami

and you should not get anything returned but root. You might get prompted
to re-accept the SSH key - accept it and run again and you should get just
root again.

Or, if you get a different error, fix that and you should be set.
