Bouncer may work with cygwin, but I haven't done any checking. If you
can get away with installing cygwin on your windows machine, life will
be easier :-)

In either case, if you think your connection may be unstable, make sure
you're using 'screen' on the linux box as you attach - then you won't
loose your session/edit/whatever when the connection drops.

There are many reasons to be using screen anyway :-) but protection
against a failing connection is the best reason for me ... I often
hang up my modem without remembering to log out of my remote machine
first ;-) but with screen in place I don't have to worry ...
