Reinstalled PBS today to try to solve some speed issues. Now I have this problem instead:

Running the same backup script as before the reinstallation yields this error..

The script runs:
proxmox-backup-client backup homes.pxar:/storage/homes --repository root@pam@10.0.0.7:backup --verbose

Code:
root@pve01:~# sh backhomes.sh
Starting backup: host/pve01/2020-10-25T09:46:44Z
Client name: pve01
Starting backup protocol: Sun Oct 25 10:46:44 2020
Error: error trying to connect: the handshake failed: error:1416F086:SSL routines:tls_process_server_certificate:certificate verify failed:../ssl/statem/statem_clnt.c:1915:: self signed certificate
root@pve01:~#

How do I fix this?
I can backup stuff from the GUI just fine, but I need to run proxmox-backup-client and backup directories

EDIT:
I made a "temporary fix" which I think should not be necesary as It was not necesary for me to include in my backup script before the reinstallation.
If I specify PBS_FINGERPRINT it works.... how do I remove the old fingerprint which is apparantly hidden somewhere and replace it with the new one?

.config/proxmox-backup/fingerprints

should probably be handled more elegantly ;)
