        Roland, SSH is always running but that's probably not what you mean. 
Why don't you just enable those services?

$ inetadm  | grep echo
disabled  disabled       svc:/network/echo:dgram
disabled  disabled       svc:/network/echo:stream

# inetadm -e svc:/network/echo:stream

        or even better, use nc(1) for both sides (and use -u for UDP). For 
example:

$ yes | nc -l -p 2222

$ nc localhost 2222
y
y
y
....
