I might not have been clear before. The Linux server is remote, running in another state, and accepting only SSH connections for login. I don't want to transfer files - I want to use the II+ as a terminal from which I can directly manipulate the Linux server via command line. I'm open to a solution that has the II+ output being routed through my PC (w/broadband connection), since the II+ obviously won't be connected to the Internet.
Run getty on Cygwin tied to the serial port. I've done it to get an Apple //e to talk over telnet to a Linux machine, should work for ssh too.
