Bingo!  That was it.  I set the permissions of SELinux to "permissive" and 
everything worked hunky dory.

Setting up rsyncd on the Windows machine has been a bit of a challenge, but it 
seems to be working now.  Here's the rsyncd.conf file that I'm using:

use chroot = false
strict modes = false
hosts allow *
log file = rsync.log
pid file = rsync.pid
#Module definitions
[BackupArea]
path = cygdrive/c/
read only = false
transfer logging = yes
secrets file = /cygdrive/c/Program Files/cwRsyncServer/rsyncd.secrets

Secrets file is

Administrator:mypassword

Both user Administrator and cwRsyncServer are set up with administrative 
priviliges.  The secrets file is hidden,

DON'T put the module name in quotes.  It should be 'BackupArea', NOT 
"BackupArea".+
