Did you try going down to a 2.x version of rsync?   Newer versions are
supposed to negotiate the protocol level but it looks like that isn't
happening in this situation.   But, unless you care about the
bandwidth used, you could just script something around the command
line BackupPC_tarCreate tool piped though ssh to a remote extract
instead of using rysnc for this at all.

After a bit more digging I've managed to get a bit more information out of
the logs:

2015/05/21 15:15:09 [14010] Invalid remainder length 467096064 [receiver]
2015/05/21 15:15:09 [14010] rsync error: protocol incompatibility (code 2)
at io.c(1352) [receiver=3.0.9]
2015/05/21 15:15:09 [14010] [receiver] _exit_cleanup(code=2, file=io.c,
line=1352): about to call exit(2)
2015/05/21 15:15:09 [14010] rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (1022021
bytes received so far) [generator]
2015/05/21 15:15:09 [14010] rsync error: error in rsync protocol data
stream (code 12) at io.c(605) [generator=3.0.9]
2015/05/21 15:15:09 [14010] [generator] _exit_cleanup(code=12, file=io.c,
line=605): about to call exit(12)

Does anyone have any idea what this might be? It seems the protocol
incompatibility error can sometimes be down to the version of rsync you are
using, but I have tried a few different versions with no success.

[BackupPC-users] manual start backup on dhcp laptop

[zdravko]

As I understand VPN and NAT (it) are different things.We use vpnc from linux to 
some other network. It is different. My client gets IP from that foreign 
netowrk and works like being hardwired into another network. That is VPN. No 
NAT forwarding needed.
Here, my home PC gets connetcted to office network, but as a different network. 
This configuration was set up by an "expert" IT, who sold us Synology offering 
to install it, too. It works (for me), he said, and left. Who cares if it is 
working properly or not.
