OpenSSH has a portable free version that has been ported to Cygwin;
haven't tried it, but that should meet the needs.
http://www.openssh.org/portable.html There's a message at
SecurityFocus.com that discusses setting it up:

Other stuff:

[1Mar2000] SSH2 (for Unix and Windows) is now available for
universities free of charge. See
http://www.ssh.com/about/press/release01032000.html and
http://www.ssh.com/products/ssh/universities.html
NT SSH Server:
Sergey Okhapkin's SSH Server for NT at: http://www.lexa.ru/sos/
(NOTE: Currently there is a security concern about using the cygwin32 dll
in a multi-user environment. If you are interested in using Okhapkin's NT
SSH server, you may also want to read Chuck Bogorad's useful hints
(http://www.lexa.ru/sos/ssh-without-cygwin.html) for running ssh without
cygnus gnu-win32 tools.)
If you just need the SCP component of the server, there's a freeware SCP
server for Win32 called RunSCP. Google for it.
