I'm wondering what the preferred method is to backing up Windows clients, especially in terms of performance.  Currently, I'm simply mounting windows drives via SMB/autofs, and running rsync over that.  I like it because I don't have to install any additional software on the clients.  But I know/read that a lot of people run Cygwin and rsync directly.  What are the advantages of that?  

Thanks,

Kris Lou
