I have a similar problem - openssh appears to be started, but may not be 
running. Everything trying to connect gets connection refused.

There is an errormessage seen on the console when you're 
sitting directly at the machine something like "requires newpriv 0" as 
connections fail (when you're running sshd with -vvv) - unfortunately
that server is elsewhere - and I can't ssh in to see the messages :(

Server is etch, upgraded over a long time and last upgraded with the 
contents of the released DVDs for Debian 4.0r3 - I can't get to 
debian.security and can't remember whether these DVDs included the 
openssl and ssh fixes.

In an effort to track this down, I did aptitude remove openssh-server, 
dpkg --purge openssh-server and then reinstalled openssh server but to 
no effect.

Posted to this list primarily because I saw Wojciech's similar posting 
immediately prior. All help on both these issues would be appreciated :)

Andy
