I think the other replies have already covered setting up an OpenSSH server but here are some useful commands to help you discover packages... apt-cache search foo will search through the packages and list matches to 'foo'. Additional information about a package can be obtained using... apt-cache show foo this will list the details for the package 'foo'. Its also worth mentioning that the apt-cache commands can be run as a regular user. It took me a while to find these commands but I use them all the time now. Hope that helps.
