All I needed to do was to edit the backup script and find the place where it
set the path.

  #!/usr/bin/perl
  #
  # Created by Brandon Gillespie
  # Additional work by Vang (Dale Mayberry)
  #
  ## This creates a FIFO list of backups based off your configuration,
  ## it can do regular, weekly and monthly backups, with the intervals
  ## and depth of the FIFO list defined by you.
  #
  # INSTALL:
  #
  # determine your world directory (i.e. the directory where 'binary'
  # exists).  Change the following variable to the full path to your
  # world directory:

  $base = "../";

When I followed those instructions, backups worked fine.
