What exactly is involved in the remote shell? Can this be done on a windows to windows backup? Do you have a link handy otherwise google to the rescue. Thank you very much.

The delta-transfer algorithm reduces only the communication between the sending and receiving rsync processes; each process reads and writes entire files in whatever filesystem it is using (local or networked). If you want to benefit from delta transfers, one of the rsync processes has to actually run on the system hosting the mapped drive. You can accomplish this either by remote shell or by setting up and accessing an rsync daemon on that system.
