Given that you want user Backup to have its way with the client system, you should not feel squeamish about giving it sudo capability, which will achieve your goal in an OS manner. For a TSM style approach, read the Admin Guide manual's discussion on access powers, particularly "Managing Client Access Authority Levels".
