This is the user that is defined in your rsyncd.secrets file. It
shouldn't require any other users. I would first check rsyncd.secrets
and make sure you're passing the right password. You set up
RsyncdUserName -> backuppc
RsyncdPasswd -> samepasswordasinrsyncd.secrets
in the Xfer settings of backuppc, right?

Rsyncd should be running as the SYSTEM user, so you won't need a
backuppc user on the Vista machine unless you want to be able to ssh
into it or the like.
Are you running something like below to test?
rsync -a [email protected]::home /var/lib/backuppc/testing/ -v
