WinXP doesn't have an SSH server installed by default, so if you really 
want to use SSH then you'll need to install a SSH server.  I've heard 
that is a PITA though.

If you don't need SSH in particular but instead need a good encrypted 
transport, then use sserver (secure sockets, I believe).

For the easiest protocol to set up and use in a Windows domain 
environment, use SSPI.
