1. Ensure that openssh-server is installed.
$ dpkg -l openssh-server
ii openssh-server 1:5.8p1-7 secure shell (SSH) server ...
3. Ensure that you can connect to the sshd port from the local host.
Do this on the local host.
$ telnet localhost 22
...
Escape character is '^]'.
SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_5.8p1 Debian-7
^] <-- Use Control-] to escape
telnet> quit <-- Then type quit to exit
4. Ensure that you can connect to the sshd port from the remote host.
Do this from the remote host.
$ telnet yourlinuxhost 22
...same as above... ...escape to command prompt and quit ...
If that fails look for a firewall that is blocking the connection.
# less /var/log/kern.log
5. Ensure that you can ssh to the remote host.
Do this on the remote host.
$ ssh yourlinuxhost
6. Increase debug level. Use one or two -v's to increase verbosity.
$ ssh -v yourlinuxhost
7. Look in /var/log/auth.log on host to determine why sshd failed.
# less /var/log/auth.log
8. Start your own debugging version of sshd and see all messages
inline.
# /usr/sbin/sshd -d -p 2222 <-- On the local host.
$ ssh -p 2222 yourlinuxhost <-- On the remote host.
If any of the above steps fail then stop there and fix that part
before proceeding further.

Easy!
# apt-get install openssh-server
That is all that you need to do. The server will be configured and
started automatically.

Just a Quick Question
Ok, so I do indeed have an "ssh" server, and I am able to ssh into my
ISP's shell account. However, I can not ssh over to my linux box. In other
words, I can get out but not in.

Out uses ssh client. In uses ssh server.
Start back at the list at step 4 or before and see where things work
and not work. Then don't say "doesn't work" but instead show us
exactly the commands you are issuing and the exact output that you are
experiencing. We can't help you otherwise.

It depends on which desktop environment you use
(KDE/GNOME/XFCE/Other?). Each one has its own way. Alternately, if you
run xscreensaver, xscreensaver-demo can be used to control the screen
saver.

assuming that you're using gnome 2

Uncheck "Activate screensaver when computer is idle"
