I think you're going about it the wrong way.
- can you set up a cron job on the remote machine to push the backup
to your machine (or where-ever)? The cron job can run the backup as
root, so you wouldn't need to worry about permissions.
- Google on the search term
+ssh +"remote backup"
for a whole bunch of examples.
