If circumstances require that you use Windows on a regular basis, you may find some or all of these tools useful.

PuTTY is my favorite client. It supports SSH 1 and 2 as well as telnet, all from a single 220k executable. The file putty.exe is not an installer; it is the whole thing. It is configured entirely in the registry, so you can merge the file putty.reg to use predefined sessions for redlance or nightfall.

Tera Term was my favorite client until PuTTY came along. It's also pretty small (about 2 MB), and you can install it from ttermp23.zip. By itself, Tera Term only supports telnet. You can add ssh 1 capability by extracting ttssh14.zip on top of it. Tera Term can connect to a serial port, which PuTTY cannot. It also has some complicated features I don't understand.

Source code to all of the above is also freely available and can be downloaded here.

rawrite and fdimage are programs that can write floppy disk image files directly to the drive. They are primarily useful for creating installation disks for FreeBSD and the like.
