Hi, Rob,
Scott put together a nice presentation about this topic, it is available here as a .pdf -- 
http://www.scottklement.com/presentations/#OPENSSH ; 
Perhaps that might help?

 Ok, I hear all this stuff about how using qsHell and/or pase to process some things isn't quite as kosher as using a ssh client, such as putty.  I think Scott Klement explained it with "Need for a "Real" Unix Terminal".  I'm starting to accept that.
How does one set up your partition to get to it using a putty client?
I see that the webby "IBM Navigator for i" says that SSHD is started.
NETSTAT *CNN shows
F15 subset to port 22
Remote          Remote    Local            Local
Address          Port      Address          Port      Type
*                *          2##.##.##.##    ssh        *TCP
And the job is:
                                                  Current
Name          User          Number    Type      User
QP0ZSPWT      QPGMR          622938    *BCH      QPGMR
I use that address in my putty client on my PC.  I get:
login as: rob
Pre-authentication banner message from server:
| Welcome! Please login.
End of banner message from server
Keyboard-interactive authentication prompts from server:
| password
| Password:
Enter in my password.  That screen displays:  End of keyboard-interactive prompts from server
And I get a popup:  Server refused to start a shell/command
I am using:
PuTTY
