If you trust on the precompiled versions and ready-to-go packages, you can
simply use the following URL:

http://sunfreeware.unam.mx/programlistsparc7.html

And download just these three [for Solaris 7]:

	zlib-1.1.3-sol7-sparc-local.gz 
	prngd-0.9.23-sol7-sparc-local
	openssh-3.0.2p1-sol7-sparc-local

Install the packages inside each one and follow with the rest and do:

	cat /var/log/syslog /var/adm/messages >
/usr/local/etc/prngd/prngd-seed
	mkdir /var/spool/prngd
	/usr/local/bin/prngd /var/spool/prngd/pool	[to start prngd]

	/usr/local/bin/ssh-keygen -t rsa -f /usr/local/etc/ssh_host_rsa_key
-N ''
	/usr/local/bin/ssh-keygen -t dsa -f /usr/local/etc/ssh_host_dsa_key
-N ''

Configure /usr/local/etc/sshd_config as you prefer and add such a line into
/etc/inetd.conf:
	ssh     stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/local/bin/tcpd
/usr/local/sbin/sshd -i

If you are not using tcpwrapper, use this line instead:
	ssh     stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/local/sbin/sshd    sshd
-i

And add this line to /etc/servicves: [surely you have this]
	ssh             22/tcp
To have prngd up and running, write a startup file for it as well.

That's it!
