Module is an rsync concept. It's like a Windows "share". In the rsync 
server you specify your modules under bracketed sections. On my 
workstations I define a [C] section in rsyncd.conf that points at C:\. 
Then, on my Linux server, I specify that I want to back up the C module.

 From the BackupPC server, try running "rsync hostname::" and you should 
see the Win10 box respond with the list of modules you've configured. 
You can get a listing of the top-level directory of the C module with 
"rsync hostname::C".

Here's my rsyncd.conf for a system with an F: drive to also back up, 
which shows up as the F module. (This has no security except for 
forbidding writes.)

use chroot = false
strict modes = false
hosts allow = *
log file = rsyncd.log
#pid file = rsyncd.pid

# newer versions of rsync need this
uid = 0
gid = 0

# Module definitions
# Remember cygwin naming conventions : c:\work becomes /cygwin/c/work
#
[C]
path = /cygdrive/c
read only = true
transfer logging = no

[F]
path = /cygdrive/f
read only = true
transfer logging = no
