UNC path issue

I'm using rsync and cygwin to do some backups from Windows machines. I have been doing something along these lines: c:\cygwin\bin\rsync -aR -e c:\cygwin\bin\ssh.exe --numeric-ids --delete --delete-after --verbose --ignore-errors --exclude-from=/cygdrive/c/offsitebackup/excludes.txt /cygdrive/c
