use ntbackup on the windows machine to create .bkp file, then copy that 
to the DR backup with scp or rsync or whatever.      ntbackup can append 
incremental backups to the same .bkp file, which is sort of like a 
compressed tarball with more features and native windows file attributes 
(its not at all compatible with tar, its just structurely somewhat 
similar).   ntbackup also uses VSS snapshots on NTFS volumes, so the 
backups are point-in-time consistent.
