As far as I know ssh doesn't send back return codes for scripts you execute remotely so your logic is a bit flawed there. Your test (if) is testing the ssh connection, I believe, so as long as you can ssh you'll test true. When you execute a command remotely with ssh you get back whatever is returned by the command so you need to execute a script on the remote server that looks for the file and returns what you want or just do it in a one-liner.

bup-server
bup-server(1) General Commands Manual bup-server(1)NAME
bup-server - the server side of the bup client-server relationship
SYNOPSIS
bup server
DESCRIPTION
bup server is the server side of a remote bup session. If you use bup-split(1) or bup-save(1) with the -r option, they will ssh to the
remote server and run bup server to receive the transmitted objects.
There is normally no reason to run bup server yourself.
MODES
smart In this mode, the server checks each incoming object against the idx files in its repository. If any object already exists, it
tells the client about the idx file it was found in, allowing the client to download that idx and avoid sending duplicate data.
This is bup-server's default mode.
dumb In this mode, the server will not check its local index before writing an object. To avoid writing duplicate objects, the server
will tell the client to download all of its .idx files at the start of the session. This mode is useful on low powered server hard-
ware (ie router/slow NAS).
FILES
$BUP_DIR/bup-dumb-server
Activate dumb server mode, as discussed above. This file is not created by default in new repositories.
