I have installed BackupPC 3.0.0-4ubuntu1 and been able to get smb 
transfer to work but not as intended. The program wants to backup the 
entire share, not the directories indicated in $Conf{BackupFilesOnly}. 
Here is the client config file with the username and password changed 
(I'll add directories if I can ever get this to work.):

$Conf{XferMethod} = 'smb';
$Conf{SmbUserName}='UUU';
$Conf{SmdPasswd} = 'password';
$Conf{XferLogLevel} = 2;
$Conf{smbShareName}= ['c','d'];
$conf{BackupFilesOnly} = {
    'c' => ['/CitizensBank'],
    'd' => ['/TSEPWin'],
    };

Here is the log file for the latest attempt:

2008-06-01 15:41:57 full backup started for share C$
2008-06-01 15:54:50 Got fatal error during xfer (       43520 (  408.7 kb/s) 
\Cygwin\bin\arch.exe)
2008-06-01 15:54:56 Backup aborted (       43520 (  408.7 kb/s) 
\Cygwin\bin\arch.exe)
2008-06-01 16:02:01 Saved partial dump 0

Note that it failed on \Cygwin\bin\arch.exe when the hard drive filled. 
Interesting that Cygwin was not one of the directories to be backed up. 
Regardless of what I try, the program wants to back up the entire share.
No backup has ever been successful. The rsyncd transfer method never 
started and the smb transfer won't complete because it fills the drive.

I would appreciate any help anyone can provide.
