Wireless security and OpenSSH

[Doug McPherson]

Whoops!   I see that my install must be a little dated.
Looks like the project at networksimplicity is inactive.
You'll have to "DIY" by installing cygwin and OpenSSH appropriately.   It's
not hard to do, btw.  I use cygwin for a lot of unix tools.

Or you could install PuTTY and be done with it, I guess (per another
response I saw).

Sorry for the mis-cue.
