If you decide to go the VNC route, please use either TightVNC or RealVNC. The generic VNC 3.3.3 for Winders has quite a few holes. These two seem to make a little better one.

Now to get to his question, we all know why to use SSH, so I understand why you would want to do it. If you need to check it, start at the beginning, www.openssh.org. Here some other links you may want to check out:
