[Techtalk] SSH Servers?

Hi all,
This actually *is*, sorta, a linux question...
I'm trying to fit a new Windows server (that doesn't have a backup tape
drive) into my automated backup system (of all Linux boxes), which basically
uses tar (or rsync, depending) over ssh (with authorized_keys, so it's
noninteractive). I'm trying to find a ssh server for windows, and so
far, the only options I can find are:
1) Spend hundreds or more on F-Secure and others
or
2) Use Cygwin / OpenSSH (what fun, get to patch windows *and* ssh on the
same box!)
Are there any other options? I looked both on Freshmeat and Sourceforge
for open source SSH servers for Windows to no avail, and I can't seem to
find any that are priced more reasonably ($50 or less would be nice)
Also, any other suggestions you might have for how to noninteractively
backup a Windows box on a Linux network (using either hard drive space or
tape) would be great. I suppose I could try using an SMB browser on the
linux side, but I haven't gone down that road yet... and I'd prefer a
secure solution.
Thanks!
