Why doesn't it work? (What is the error?) It should be in the normal debian
package list. Find attached the output of apt-cache show ssh.
(OK, I use testing, but I think it's also in stable - correct me if I'm wrong!)

Description: Secure rlogin/rsh/rcp replacement (OpenSSH)
 This is the portable version of OpenSSH, a free implementation of
 the Secure Shell protocol as specified by the IETF secsh working
 group.
 .
 Ssh (Secure Shell) is a program for logging into a remote machine
 and for executing commands on a remote machine.
 It provides secure encrypted communications between two untrusted
 hosts over an insecure network.  X11 connections and arbitrary TCP/IP
 ports can also be forwarded over the secure channel.
 It is intended as a replacement for rlogin, rsh and rcp, and can be
 used to provide applications with a secure communication channel.
 .
 This package provides both the ssh client and the sshd server.
 .
 --------------------------------------------------------------------
 .
 In some countries it may be illegal to use any encryption at all
 without a special permit.
