The FAQ has this entry, which seems appropriate:

What packages should I download? Where are 'make', 'gcc', 'vi', etc?

In general, same as on Linix/UNIX, though there is a Cygwin specific README
in /usr/share/doc/Cygwin for inetutils which explains what to do to get it
configured and running.  After that, you should be able to get rsh/rlogin
running with existing docs.  But unless you *absolutely* need rsh/rlogin,
you'd be much better off using ssh from the openssh package.  Everything 
I've said about finding and configuring rsh's package applies equally to 
openssh.
