It is not there if we speak about compatibility 1.1.15 and 1.2.0 versions?

I'm tryed. Firstly it is not compatibility itself, so, differs even path representation. So, I'm correct path and it is thrown error:

Fatal Error: Lost connection to the remote system
So, I'm find it unusable.

I am afraid that I do not understand you. Methinks I already use ssh in Cygwin for rdiff-backup's remote operations. Is there another way of using rdiff-backup?

Correct. 1.1.15 and 1.2.0 are NOT compatible.

The error you are seeing is almost certainly because rdiff-backup is  
not executing properly on the remote host. Or, if it is, some other  
data is being returned by the login shell before rdiff-backup gets a  
chance to run.

Try:

$ ssh -C hubbitus@workcomp nice -n15 /cygdrive/d/Hubbitus/Distributivs/
rdiff-backup/rdiff-backup-1.2.1-win32/rdiff-backup.exe --version

and see what it returns. It should return a line which says "rdiff-
backup 1.2.0" and nothing else.

I was just suggesting that you could use other SSH solutions on  
Windows such as the one from ssh.com or putty, etc.
