An ssh client is easy. I have installed one called fish. It's at
http://www.free.lp.se/fish/. It's supplied in object form, so all you need
to do is link it.
An ssh server is more difficult. One does exist, but I have no luck with it.
It's at
http://www.er6.eng.ohio-state.edu/~jonesd/ssh/. It needs OpenSSL (which is
easy), or SSLeay, which in turn needs perl.

Try OpenBSD :) I'm a big fan of OpenBSD. It's got a lot of features that
other BSD's, and Linux distros lack. It has an easy to use NAT setup called
IPF, which has a very simply filtering syntax.
