 You'll notice this is a VHDX file - 40GB in size this one is. The problem is indeed a timeout, but it's not at the BackupPC end, it's at the rsyncd end. I added the following line to the proper module of my rsyncd.conf on the host being backed up:
 <code> timeout = 10800</code>

+Problem remains unsolved as of yet. It seems the problem is not necessarily an rsync copy problem but they way that it's choosing to compare the files, or maybe the business with copying deltas. My current workaround is to ignore those files since they're not in active use anyway. It should be noted their first full backup went without a hitch.
