Thanks for your concern Chris.  However, all I need is just a bare bones 
sshd and vi or emacs installation.  That is all.  If I ever decided to use 
more of the tools, then I would install the whole package the way it is 
setup and designed for.

FYI:
Because of all your help and patience with me I have now successfully 
installed SSHD and VI and got them both to work with the cmd.exe instead of 
bash.exe.  Now for those users in my organization that have no clue as to 
what a bash shell is, I don't have to run around in circles trying to 
explain how to use it.  They can just use their familiar NT command shell 
and do what ever they need.  I will be writing up a short documentation 
about how I got it to work and I will post that when I am done.  NOTE: this 
is a very NON-STANDARD install, as Chris mentioned below.

Thanks again for all your help, I really do appreciate it.

Bret
