Because I can't open the firewall on C to allow incoming connections
from the bbackupd on B.  I only have ssh access and the guy running the
server is quite paranoid about opening up other services directly onto
the internet.  He is happy for me to forward the connections over ssh
though.

Therefore the config file for bbackupd on B says:
StoreHostname =3D localhost

I was wondering this morning if I could get bbstored on B to only listen
on the network interface (eth0 192.168.*.*) and *not* on localhost and
that might solve my problem.  Is there a way to specify the interface to
listen on?
