I tried to resist asking about this, but I can't help myself as it would 
solve some problems that I just assumed were not answerable.

But I will only take baby-steps.

How can one ssh from a cygwin shell to a Fedora box? My XP system has a 
dynamic IP of 192.168.2.? and all my Fedora boxes have static IPs in the 
192.168.2.x range. I can get anything from my Fedora boxes to my XP by 
using "mail/mailx" and picking it up from XP Thunderbird, but I have no 
way to get anything from my XP box to the Fedora boxes (I burned out my 
"help cycles" with trying to use mail/mailx and don't want to go that 
route again). If I could ssh/scp to my Fedora boxes, I think I would be 
quite happy.

Thanks in advance,
Paul
