SOLARIS 2.6:
1) installed openssl by ./config; make; make test; make install;
2) installed zlib by ./configure; make test; make install;
3) installed ANDIrand-0.6-5.6-sparc-1.pkg to add /dev/random and /dev/urandom
4) installed openssh by ./configure; make; make install;
5) edited configuration files:
       /usr/local/etc/sshd_config: changed forwardX11 to yes
6) added ssh lines to the /etc/services file
      ssh             22/tcp                          # SSH Remote Login Protocol
      ssh             22/udp                          # SSH Remote Login Protocol
7) added startup script to the /etc/init.d directory and made
   links to appropriate rc*.d directories per scripts instructions
   named the script "sshd" and set execution bit.
===================== SCRIPT START ================
#!/bin/sh
#
# Start/Stop the secure shell daemon.
#
# Originally Written by Michael Haardt, 1996.
#
# Sean Boran for Solaris 2.4 and later:
# cp startup-script /etc/init.d/sshd
# ln -s /etc/init.d/sshd /etc/rc2.d/S10sshd
# ln -s /etc/init.d/sshd /etc/rc2.d/K10sshd

PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin
SSHD=/usr/local/sbin/sshd
PID=/usr/local/etc/sshd.pid

case $1 in
  'start')
    start=false
    if [ ! -s $PID ]
    then
      start=true
    else
      kill -0 `cat $PID` >/dev/null 2>&1 || start=true
    fi
    if [ $start = true -a -x $SSHD ]
    then
      $SSHD
      echo 'SSH1 Secure shell daemon started.'
    else
      echo 'SSH1 Secure shell daemon not started.'
    fi
  ;;
  'stop')
    if [ -s $PID ]
    then
      if kill `cat $PID` >/dev/null 2>&1
      then
        echo 'SSH1 Secure shell daemon terminated.'
      fi
    fi
  ;;
  *)
    echo 'Usage: /etc/init.d/sshd start|stop'
    ;;
============== SCRIPT END ===================






SunOS:
1) installed openssl by ./config; make; make test; make install;
   NOTE: this takes a LONG time on a sparc 1 (~2-4 hours)
2) install zlib by: ./configure; make test; make install;
3) compiled prngd-0.9.23 
   edited the Makefile to include default SunOS4 lines
   left config.h as received
   moved executable to /usr/local/sbin (had to create dir)
   created /etc/prngd.conf by copying from contrib/SunOS-4
   cat'ed some log files into /etc/prngd-seed 
   executed /usr/local/sbin/prngd /dev/egd-pool to start
   tested with egd (see below)
4) installed egd.pl to provide testing of prngd
   perl Makefile.PL; make; make test; make install;
4) installed pcre-3.5 by: ./configure; make; make install;
   then ./libtool --finish /usr/local/lib
   NOTE: had to change the strtoul fuunction call in pcretest.c 
         to strtol because SunOS 4.1.3 doesn`t have a strtoul.
5) installed openssh by: ./configure --sysconfdir=/etc/ssh --with-ipv4-default; 
                         make; make install;
6) started server with /usr/local/sbin/sshd (need to run this w/o inetd, it 
      takes way too long to generate a key at startup otherwise. It also takes 
      about a minute to complete the negotiation at login).
7) put prngd and sshd into /etc/rc.local 
8) Start up on the other clients:
     1) copy /etc/prngd.cong to /etc
     2) cat some log file to /etc/prngd-seed to start
     3) /usr/local/sbin/prngd /dev/egd-pool 
         check with egc.pl /dev/egd-pool get
     4) copied /etc/ssh/ssh_config, sshd_config, ssh_prng_cmds, and primes to 
        /etc/ssh
     5) generated host keys in /etc/ssh
     6) /usr/local/sbin/sshd
     7) modified /etc/rc.local to auto start at reboot






Linux RedHat 7.1
1) Install ssl from rpms
2) untar openssh and compile
    used options: 
       --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc/ssh --with-tcp-wrappers --with-ipv4-default
    modified /etc/ssh/sshd_config tp set forwardX11 to yes
3) added the followinf file to /etc/xinetd.d
================ SSHD START FILE ==========================
# default: on
# ssh for secure connections modified from the telnet example
# gcc - 9/22/01
service ssh
{
        disable = no
        socket_type     = stream        
        wait            = no
        user            = root
        server          = /usr/sbin/sshd
        server_args     = -i
        log_on_failure  += USERID
}
=============== SSHD END ==================================
4) did chkconfig sshd on (checked with chkconfig --list)
