Answer 1

http://www.jcraft.com/jsch/ to connect to a ssh server. Thats just going to be a putty client in Java though... What you want to do is not clear though.

Answer 2

Depending on what you're really trying to do, expectj might be worth investigating - it can connect to a remote host using telnet or ssh, invoke commands and wait for specific responses (in the spirit of the Unix expect command and its predecessors).
