 Hello,
 
 Thank you for attempting to reproduce it.
 
 I concur with your result 3b) If you try to type  /etc/rc.d/sshd start -= it wont start.
 
 The servers that are exhibiting this are currently production servers and I cannot conveniently reboot them on command.
 
 I will build a fresh box and see if I can duplicate it from scratch.
 
 You are welcome to TeamView or SSH/screen view one of the servers to examine the configuration.
