I don't know about SSH on win32 but on linux I can do something like.

scp myfile.zip fred@bedrock.com:/my/deployment/dir

and use public/private key system to authenticate. So to do it in ant it 
would be as simple as

<exec executable="scp" os="Linux">
  <arg value="myfile.zip"/>
  <arg value="fred@bedrock.com:/my/deployment/dir"/>
</exec>

Cheers,

Pete
