Recent Solaris releases do *not* include ssh. Binary packages are
available from sunfreeware.com,
<http://sunfreeware.com/programlistsparc8.html#openssh>. You also need
openssl.
In the past I've generally built my own binary packages of openssl and
openssh, using a kernel module to provide /dev/random as a random source
(I think the sunfreeware packages use EGD). Making installable packages
is reasonably easy, and well documented. More info in the Applicating
Packaging Developer's Guide, at
