Thanks Donovan, I downloaded the librsync 0.9.6 from
sf and it compiled just fine believe it or not in the
new visual studio.net. There where warnings but no
fatal errors and the exe seems to be running just
fine. I've tested it just now on a 60 meg mdb file
that I've been trying to backup.. it seems to work
great!. I even saved the original so I could apply
patches and then file compare just to be extra
paranoid.. seems great.. I've included those errors in
this mail if anybody cares.. (probably not ;) )..
Thank you so much. 

Are there any file size limits with rdiff.exe in
win/dos? I remember there being a 2 gig limit I read
somewhere.. is that still true? 

Here's the warnings in Visual studio .net
rdiff warning LNK4075: ignoring '/EDITANDCONTINUE' due
