The simple file sharing issue is only a problem if you're using the scripts
to enable VSS, more specifically are using winexe to launch stuff. The other
common configuration problem was that file/print sharing wasn't enabled,
which prevents winexe from working. There were some Win2k hosts as well
(which wont work w/ VSS) and for simplicities sake I didn't want to override
anything in the backuppc control menu. I had to modify the scripts somewhat
and add a kill program to the backuppc folder. But this isn't an
rsync/cygwin issue; it only pertains to running VSS via winexe.
