Yes.

You create a Deltacopy service which is simply a Rsyncd running on
port 873 (standard). You connect with Backuppc with rsyncd config.
After you created the deltacopy service, you create a virtual
directory: e.g. cDRIVE and fill in the path and the credentials. this
cDRIVE is what you use in backuppc as Rsyncshare name.

The easy part is that you can copy the windows folder to another
client, register the service and you're good. I did a few tests with
Cygwin and it seems there are a lot more steps to get it running (but
you can get encryption via ssh then)
