[OpenAFS] offsite backup

I have a userwho wants to back up his home directory (in an openafs volume)
on his home machine (Windows, cable modem, dynamic NAT IP).  Is there a way
to do incremental backups from OpenAFS?

I'm looking at volume replication, but that only works from server to
server, and requires a fixed IP.  Volume dumps are not incremental, and
produce files only readable by AFS.  How can I quickly sync a local Windows
folder with OpenAFS?

I'm looking for something better than rsync, but I'll use that if nothing
else is available.
