While looking for an easy (and immediate) way to get an SSH console to windows, I found MobaXVT. It is describe as a “Free portable X server with Unix/Cygwin utilities”. As the description suggest, it is actually a Cygwin encapsulation into a nice multi-tab interface that has a built-in (among other things that I didn’t test) SSH client. Anyway, if you are just looking to have an SSH client under Windows, this is a great solution if you are allergic to the Cygwin installation. This is available for free download at http://mobaxvt.mobatek.net/en/.
