that's something i (or most others) can help you with.

first you'll need an ssh server. this can vary depending on your
distro; in ubuntu, the package "ssh" installs the openssh server IIRC.

you'll want to look through /etc/ssh/sshd_config after the server is
installed (man sshd_config should give you some more information on
configuration there. specific questions are always welcome to the list
as well).

start sshd. probably:
/etc/init.d/ssh start
or
/etc/init.d/sshd start

make sure port 22 (or whatever port you defined in sshd_config) is
opened and pointed to your computer's ip in your router (there are
tons of guides out there for this. google "port forwarding")

on the other end, you'll need an ssh client. the ssh package contains
one. for windows, i use PuTTY (google for it, free - as in beer -
program).

any specific questions?

talent, everyone hates him, and he's just in it for the fame and money.
