you don't open it. you stop it being blocked, which is not the same thing. Post the output of "iptables -vnL" and we'll see. First thing is to have an ssh service running of course...

this is where you tell us useful information about your situation, and not just say "it doesn't work".

try to reinstall it.
sudo apt-get install openssh-server openssh-client
then
service ssh start
