I have been asked what is the ssh client for Linux. I am like: What do you mean? You just use ssh command, that is the client, and it comes along with all of the Linux distros I know.

Does anyone know is there any Linux distro does not include ssh client in default installation.

I think you've been asked the name of the SSH client - which is typically OpenSSH. As for your actual question, I don't know if there's a distro that doesn't have an ssh client by default (otherwise I'd answer properly). – Matthew Iselin Feb 28 '11 at 5:54

Most Linux distributions have OpenSSH client today. Embedded Linux contain Dropbear SSH server and client.

Arch Linux comes without ssh client by default.
