How does one enable SSH on Mac OS X beta? Does it need to be compiled?

It's all included. Just run ssh-keygen. Then you can use ssh.

If you want others to ssh to your computer you have to add the line
SSHSERVER=-YES-
to /etc//hostconfig and restart, or run "sshd" by hand.It complains that a file is missing. Just run ssh-keygen again and save the key under the filename sshd complained about. (I forgot the exact name. I think "/etc/ssh_host_key" or something)
