Yeah,
Your biggest problem is that Windows XP has no built-in support for SSH. PuTTY is a great tool for doing this, as the previous answer stated (http://www.putty.nl).
The other alternative is to use cygwin on Windows (http://www.cygwin.com). From that, use OpenSSH and you should be just as well off. Cygwin, however, does take more effort since, what it does is create a small linux distribution that you can use while XP is currently running. If you plan on using other things for geared for Linux or even Solaris itself, Cygwin could be a good solution.
