Yes, ssh and rsyncserver are running on the Windows client. Thank you.
I'll have to check but, I thought that it was a TCP port (22) I setup as an inbound route. (Might have been UDP, too many years away from Windows clients, too use to Linux, I'll check.) Thank you.
I am still interested in knowing if I can check a log file that will help me, either on the Windows client or the Backuppc server. Anyone?

Did you start the SSHD service on the PC? See
