because it's unnecessary?

SSH was invented because the *nix telnet process was considered insecure,
'tunneling' through SSH was a later development.

Though it is possible to access a Windows system by telnet the more
'standard method' used for administration is RPC. NT4 introduced 'Terminal
Services' for a full GUI experience and all versions of Windows Server since
have supported this.

All versions of Windows Server have also supported secure tunneling (RRAS
VPN).

Pedro,
you are not connecting to RWW, you are using an RDP client to
connect to the server.

RWW is a set of web pages.
Components in RWW allow users to connect to workstations or Terminal
Servers by the use of the RDP Proxy and an ActiveX control in IE.

For a *nix or Mac client to connect to workstations or TS's either
customised ports must be used or a VPN established.

Or a local SSH server run on the LAN. It's a shame Microsoft never got
around to producing a native one...
MS looks at marketplaces.

Windows is still the larger marketplace.

Sorry, I don't follow you there. Windows has FTP, Telnet and other things.
Why not SSH?
