I already have ssh access (by way of MobaSSH) and passwordless login to my Win-server from the BPC-machine. I'm thinking Deltacopy might help me, as I can't get the regular rsync to work. Rsyncd might be better for my environment.
I'll look into this in more detail after the Easter vacations.

I just installed cygwin 1.7 with openssh and rsync, setup openssh as a demon, and do BackupPC that way. The Windows boxes set up exacl\tly like my Linux ones.
