What's the current state of the art of doing windows backups? I've just 
been using smb and letting a commercial system run separately to cover 
the open file and permission failures I see, but now I'm down to one 
windows file server in this location and I'd like to make backuppc 
reliable enough to shut the other system down.

Google popped this:
http://majentis.com/2011/01/03/backuppc-with-sshrsyncvss-on-windows-server/
up near the top of the list, and it seems to imply that a stock cygwin 
1.7 install and a bash file using 'at' to escalate permissions over what 
you get with the shell under ssh is all you need.   Are there better 
ways?  For this, I don't really care about acls or being able to restore 
the system files and I prefer bash over batch syntax.
