Hi Biju

you can check the ssh version as follows
# swlist openssh
#swlist -l fileset openssh
or
#ssh -V
will show the version (for the client)
or
#sshd -v
will show the help page but also the version for the server....

From the nickel output you can check all software list which are installed in your OS.

You can iterrogate the executabe :
cd /opt/ssh/bin
file ssh
cd /opt/ssh/sbin
file sshd

PA-RISC1.1 means 32-bit
PA-RISC2.0 means 64-bit
ELF32 means 32-bit
ELF64 means 64-bit

On my Itanium system, ssh is 32-bit while sshd is 64-bit.

do a

#file ssh

If the output is ELF-64 then its 64 bit
else is only 32 bit (eg. PA-RISC1.1 or PA-RISC2.0)
