You'll have to be more specific with your error messages. "it didn't work" could mean anything from "it didn't install" to "my computer caught fire".

Assuming you get it installed, it looks like you should be able to cut and paste the example from the documentation, add the right username and password, and have it work.

You can use ssh itself if you have cygwin installed, but I don't think that is the solution you were looking for.
