Until 4.1 it is not supported (but works).
follow for ESXi http://www.vm-help.com/esx/esx3i/ESXi_enable_SSH.php
If this is 4.1 then you can enable from the DCUI interface under Troubleshooting Tools.
Or Tech Support mode

On ESX4i
I’ve also poked around a bit, and found that while scp works, sftp does not. Also note that some commenters had to do the following to get this to work: ps aux |grep inetd (getting the PID) and then kill -HUP PID
OR
Other thing is > VI client in host > Configuration > Security Profile > Remote Tech Support (SSH) > Options > Start Automatically > Reboot Host to apply this new rule
....and finally
vim-cmd hostsvc/enable_remote_tsm
vim-cmd hostsvc/start_remote_tsm
