I recently got a netbook that has Winows XP on it, and I was trying to use SSH to tunel into another computer that can itself have remote login enabled. It didn't recognize SSH as a valid command. I'm trying to figure out how I can install this functionality. Just to be clear, I don't need the netbook to be able to have things ssh into it, just to be able to use ssh to tunnel into other computers. I know that there are outside code packages that can be installed; I just don't know which is best. Thanks!

I am not aware if windows command prompt has this feature but you can try a software known as Putty

Windows doesn't have a built-in SSH client. There is one you can download from online, though.
