Ok, thanks for all the answers, but this is still my most pressing question
Failed to bind: 0.0.0.0 port 22 (Address already in use) : 1 Time(s)
This occurs in my LogWatch everyday. I am a little paranoid, but I just don't want a "man-in-the-middle" process intercepting my ssh data / passwords
I think it occurs daily because you have not disabled ipv6 and sshd attempts to bind to ipv6 and ipv4 any address port 22.
If you add an entry to your /etc/modprobe.conf like this:
alias net-pf-10 off
Then sshd will no longer log that problem. You may see it in logwatch the next day since it applies to a timeframe of "yesterday" but after that it will be gone.
