Hi Kurt, I would be interested in reading your HowTo for cygwin and rsncyd. As I tried that on Windows and it was soooo sloooow, so, I went back to Samba.
Let me know when you have done your HowTo and I'll put it through its paces and add what ever else I find.

Transfer speed was very (no I mean verrrry) slow. I've tried rsync over SSH (very slow with cygwin), I tried Samba (had problems with user-rights and you can not use exclude and includes at the same time) and now I'm using rsyncd and everything seems fine: [snip] I'm recently writing a howto 'Backup Windows Clients with (cygwin) rsyncd and BackupPC', and I would be glad to hear feedback.
