Once the ssh deamon is running, it is sure that ssh is alive. If ssh id not starting up, check ur syslog for errors.
You can check ssh is up or not by using ps command # ps -ae | grep ssh 648 ? 0:00 sshd
And also by using netstat command as
netstat -na | grep LISTEN
which would show you the following if ssh is alive, tcp 0 0 *.22 *.* LISTEN

Subject: Re: RHEL4 + SSH
I know the diff between SSH and Telnet
I m using telnet to port 22 to check if the SSH service is alive or not, and instead of givin me the telent prompt it throws me out,
telnet localhost 22 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to hell-rules (127.0.0.1). Escape character is '^]'. SSH-1.99-OpenSSH_3.6.1p2
This is output from my CentOS system
