I got the OpenSSH (and zlib, and prngd) from sunfreeware.com. Zlib comes
in the OpenSSH package now, I suppose to make sure the recent security hole
in it is patched and your OpenSSH won't be indirectly made vulnerable.
This version of OpenSSH apparently compiled to use the prngd (a
random-number generator), and I did not try to get around that.
I was able to tunnel a DM through OpenSSH to Exceed on my PC (using the
Cygwin version of OpenSSH as a client). I only had to tell Exceed not to
try to establish the connection with rexec, as we normally do. Otherwise,
Exceed doesn't know or care that X is being tunneled. Seemed to work fine.
I plan later in the year to go permanently to this setup, in the interest
of security. I'd really like to replace the r-* suite with it, but it
remains to be seen whether the I/A software will have a problem with that.

Get openssh from www.sunfreeware.com in Solaris package format
for Solaris 2.5.1. There are a couple of other packages from the
same site that must also be installed, but setup is very easy.

If you enable X11 Forwarding your X servers do not need to know anything
about ssh, but you will need an ssh client on the Windows side, I suggest
PuTTY which is free and available at
http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
I am not sure about forwarding a DM through ssh, I have not tried that
yet.....
