I installed all the SSH rpms per instructed.  I cannot connect to the server from outside (or inside for that matter) that LAN.  Which port and protocal should I be using to connect.

You need an SSH client and you'll find references to these at:

You need to type /sbin/expand-template /etc/hosts.allow and your ssh will work (if you followed the instructions on E-Smith's home page, the install did not update the hosts allow file, but this will take care of it.

Hi. I am using secureCRT, so I have the proper client....
I also issued the command per instructions /sbin/e-smith/expand-template /etc/hosts.allow
do I need to restart inetd?  or am I trying to login on the wrong port.

SSHD is not started from inetd.
