ssh stands for secure shell. It uses the secure socket
layer (SSL) to establish a connection machines similar to
telnet or rsh. It also includes the secure copy (scp) protocol
as part of the suite.

I've installed it on my machine and reccommend its use as 
a replacement to telnet and password requiremed ftp since the 
password transaction is also encrypted. This is not true for telnet, rsh or
ftp. If one of the machines is running an illicit sniffer your password can
be acquired by the sniffer operator when establishing a telnet or ftp
connection. 

You'll need to install first the OpenSSL library and then the
OpenSSH applications. 

Try cvhecking out http://www.openssh.com  

Have fun.
