Dropbear
Dropbear is a relatively small SSH 2 server and client. It runs on a variety of POSIX-based platforms. Dropbear is open source software, distributed under a MIT-style license. Dropbear is particularly useful for "embedded"-type Linux (or other Unix) systems, such as wireless routers.
VMware uses Busybox which are developed for embedded systems: http://www.busybox.net/
For example the commands
- busybox nslookup lwn.net
- busybox hostname
- busybox uptime
