Hi all,
I need to do a remote login from an XPH box into an Kubuntu 8.04 box
that is running ssh. Is this possible and what software do I need to
install on the XPH side to make this work?

Sure is. All you need is something like putty and you'll be able
to open an ssh connection to your machine.

Yup. Unless you want a GUI-like FTP client (for SSH of course) to your
files. Then winscp is your app:

I can also vouch for putty. I use it from work on an XP box to one of my PCs
at home. Set some port forwarding in it and you can open up webmin, vnc,
cups etc. I haven't got anything at work that will allow me to open X
sessions but if you have the patience you can do that over the tunnel too.
You can set up enough port forwards in it to bounce on to other machines on
your home network too with just the one port forward in your router.

In addition to putty, install xming on the XP box. This will enable you
to use the XP box as an X server, so that any GUI applications running on
the Ubuntu box will display on the XP box.
