You can ssh with Terminal (Macintosh HD -> Applications -> Utilities). Otherwise if you're needing to do SCP or SFTP I would recommend Fugu.
 
I recommend MacFusion or Fugu. Fugu is easier to use due to its ability to change File Permissions on the spot but Macfusion integrates it into Finder, which I personally like more.
