Hi,
First of all, I wanted to try AIX and purchased a rs6000 from ebay with AIX6.1 installed.
My plan is to lear AIX, but I need to install ssh on the machine for the remote access.
The point is that I have seen nowhere a how'to or something.
Can you please give me some advices?
Thank you!
OpenSSH for AIX can be found here: SourceForge.net: OpenSSH on AIX
However, the pre-requisite OpenSSL is available at an IBM site linked from the site above. You will need an account there to download it.
Ok, I unarchived it, and tried to install it, but I receive errors, and openssl seems to be installed...
What should I do? 
bash-3.00# geninstall -Y -d /admin/openssh-5.0_tcpwrap/ I:openssh.base

hi,
you have Requisite Failures.
First install: openssl.base 0.9.8.800
Without openssl, openssh can not be installed.
regards,
Randy
Thanks, but:
bash-3.00# rpm -qa |grep openssl
openssl-0.9.7l-2
I have openssl 0.9.7l-2 already installed. Do I have to uninstall it? If so, how?
Thanks!
It looks like you need a newer version of openssl for openssh 5.0 to work. Check you're install logging as it states that openssl version 0.9.8.800 is required.
I'm sorry but I'm a newbie and I don't know how to find that log 
Where should I search for it?
You need the OpenSSL from the IBM web site.
https://www14.software.ibm.com/webapp/iwm/web/reg/pick.do?source=aixbp&lang=en_US
You need to register with IBM (free) to download it.
The RPM version of OpenSSL is not recognized as installed by the OpenSSH LPP
I've installed openssl with smitty install_latest! It said success.
Now I'll try the same with openssh.
I've managed to make it to work.
Here's how I did, maybe some other people will have the same problem:
First of all, I've downloaded from here: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group\_id=127997&package_id=254693 the openssh.z archive for AIX.
Second, I've downloaded from the IBM site the openssl archive .z for AIX.
Then, I've unarchived and install them both, with the smitty_install latest on both packages.
Thank you so much for your support.
