Hi guys,

couldnt get anything useful.
    Waiting for your replies ;-)

Although there is openssh available for windows using Cygwin[1], like someone else suggested, you should consider installing rdesktop on linux and enabling remote desktop login on your windows system. There is yet another option -- install a VNC server on windows and then you can access your windows systems either through a browser or using a vnc client on linux.

In any case openssh is a limiting option unless you are scripting something and/or all the windows tasks that you want to execute are command line tasks.

hth,
cheers,
