Right, if you use the sunfreeware packages, it ain't that difficult.
There's a prngd init script in /usr/local/doc/prngd/Solaris-8/ thet you
stick in etc/init.d.  Put the conf file,
/usr/local/etc/doc/prngd/Solaris-7/prngd.conf in /etc.  Be sure to change
the paths in prngd.conf to point to the right place - sshd is going to
expect to find the prngd socket in /var/spool[somthingorother].  If you try
to run sshd it'll tell you where it's expectingto find the prngd socket.
Also, you'll need to copy sshd.conf to /etc, and create a sshd init script
if one wasn't included.  To have these start at boot, you'll need to link
them in /etc/rc3.d.
