Would someone explain how to use the SSH client of Cygwin?  I installed
it (a large and long install), searched the documentation and bin
subdirectory, and could not find an SSH client.  The FAQ mentioned a SCT
utility in the context of SSH, but I could not find that in my
installation either.  I thought it was supposed to be part of a default
Cygwin installation.  If not, what additional package is needed, and
what precisely, is the name of the client?
