It should already be installed because it is contained in standard
installation. Type "which ssh" if you get "/usr/bin/ssh" then ssh client
and server (same package) are installed.

During installation you were asked if ssh
server should be started. If you said no it wrote a file /etc/ssh/
sshd_not_to_be_run. If you remove this file ssh server should start during
bootup.

No. hosts.allow and hosts.deny are used by the inetd server who can pass
requests to other servers (e.g. telnetd). sshd is running standalone, so
you do not need hosts.{allow|deny}.

If you want to restrict access edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config and add/modify
the parameter ListenAddress and set it to the IP of your ethernet card.
