Me too...Although we have been using rsync instead of rsyncd since the
new Cygwin came out, it is always nice to see some other ways of doing
things. We are using diskshadow (on 2008) to backup things like
Exchange 2007.

Hi,
As of today, I have all my Windows Servers being backed up via rsync (not
rsyncd) and ssh. I can now manage my Linux and Windows backups the same way.
My solution doesn't require dosdev.exe, it uses vshadows ability to map a
shadow copy to any directory.
BackupPC ssh's into the windows box and runs my bash script 'pre-backuppc.sh',
then ssh's in to do the rsync backup, and when done, ssh's in runs
post-backuppc.sh.
I borrowed some stuff from other peoples scripts (specifically the 'at' command
stuff to get permissions to run vshadow.exe), and the rest is really simple.
If anyone is interested, I can post the scripts here, and how I setup cygwin 1.7
