Install the cygwin-rsyncd on WinXX clients. I tried using SMB, but it didn’t work. rsyncd works better per the BackupPC FAQ.
Windows XP Firewall Issue
Make sure that the Windows XP firewall, if turned on, is allowing connections through on port 873 (rsync).
Edit rsync.conf on the workstation
[CAM]
#
# Exact DOS style path to the file or directory to be rsync accessible
#
path = e:/CAM#
# A short description of the module. This is what is printed when
# using rsync to “browse” the server for what modules are available.
#
comment = CAM Data
Make sure that the [Module Name] matches this client’s config.pl $Conf{RsyncShareName}. Otherwise the backup will fail.
