Hi all --
My needs are simple: I need a workable ssh client to run on my windows box 
and exchange files with a remote linux site with my login on it.
I feel like I'm going crazy. I looked for openssh and found a page for it, 
which led me to winscp, which sounded like what I wanted, but I can't get it 
into a state I can work with.  What I'd really like is not something like 
telnet or sftp, but rather a bash shell that I can run remotely.
I haven't done this in a while and need someone to jog my memory as to what 
tools are best for doing this.  I understand that MSYS and MinGW have an ssh 
command that works, but I have MSYS set up and it can't find ssh.  I also 
have cygwin set up, bu it also has no ssh.
I considered putty, but thought I'd ask the list first.  How many trees do I 
have to bark at before I find the right command?  Someone please post a 
note. Thanks in advance!
