How to install SSH on Solaris 10?

Dear friends,
I am running Solaris 10 x86, I have only one monitor so I want to access my solaris machine with putty. Please help me setup SSH on Solaris and how to make my solaris system ssh-accessible on the network. It would be so nice of you if could provide details on each step as I am a novice.
Thanks alot in advance!!!

By default, ssh is already installed and configured on Solaris 10. There is nothing particular outside the fact root access is disabled.

Hi,
ssh should already be installed.

you use this command to login to your server.
Code:
ssh  [username]@[servername or IP]

to see if ssh is running use this command.
Code:
ps -ef | grep ssh

if ssh is running you will see output like this.
Code:
root 23589         1   0          Aug 04  ?     0:05  /usr/lib/ssh/sshd

I hope this is helpful

As root, to disable and enable ssh, simply enter
Code:
svcadm disable ssh
svcadm enable ssh
