That is why I start with ssh server at installation.  It means that I can use 
fish from the get-go.  But there was a problem with my husband's computer 
(Supplier.  It's a long story) and it was an 80th birthday present.  It was 
meant to be fully set up before he got back from a trip, but because of the 
problems I had barely installed the OS and the DE, so had to minimise the 
time spent on anything else.  He has not long been back.  But I shall get 
access and then .....

Come to think of it, I could have used fish anyway.  I generally install ssh 
server _and_ client before trying to use either, but I should not be so hide 
bound.
