@Craig Barratt<mailto:[email protected]> that was indeed the
problem. I was able to get my ssh to use password-less login and sorted out
the list of known_hosts issue and that seemed to do the trick.

Subject: Re: [BackupPC-users] Unexplained Error Code 255 - BackupPC
Failed to add the host to the list of known hosts
(/home/backuppc/.ssh/known_hosts).
In addition to password-less login, this error is also a problem. It probably
means your permissions on ~backuppc/.ssh/known_hosts are wrong. Without the
client being in known_hosts, ssh will prompt every time to be sure you want to
proceed.
So there are two prompts (ok to proceed & password) you need to get rid of.
