Re: please explain ssh

pacman -S openssh
/etc/rc.d/sshd start
echo "sshd:ALL:ALLOW" >> /etc/hosts.allow

Now you can use PuTTY to log into your Arch box. Add "sshd"  to the list of daemons in /etc/rc.conf so the SSHd is started when you boot the system. Give /etc/ssh/sshd_config a review for extra security, especially if the box is connected to the internet.

Re: please explain ssh

install openssh
start the ssh deamon /etc/rc.d/sshd
EDIT: do not do this, did not see the part about local network: forward port 22 on your router to your local ip
done!

Optional:
edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config.

Re: please explain ssh

What does

ldconfig -v | grep libcrypto

say? Maybe the installation of Apache changed something to the libraries and the cache (ldconfig) wasn't updated. Also, be sure to start the daemon as root (cf "Permission denied" error).
