Dominic, thanks for your reply.
I have a solution to recover from disaster which can restore the
system to factory default. After that, I want to restore the system to
latest or earlier version. I can achieve it in linux <-> linux way. I
can back up the whole system to a Linux host and then restore later.
It works. But came to Windows, problems happened.
As the linux system I am working for is a mobile device, and users
need to backup the device to a host machine, which usually is a
windows machine. So I am seeking a solution to backup the linux system
to windows.
If there are only data files, it is relatively easy, there are many
solutions for it. but I want to design the feature similar with
Apple's Time Machine. I want to restore the system to earlier state,
not only the data, but also application/application config etc.
So I need to backup/restore the whole Linux system files to/from
Windows system.

I don't know how to do this, I admit, so maybe others can help. But I
think for rdiff-backup you should try first with remote linux host,
because this is the best-tested version of rdiff-backup. Then if this
works you can see if it can work also for rdiff-backup.exe (the windows
version). This way problems may be easier to diagnose.
