So please post the result of following command $ egrep -v '^$|^#' /etc/ssh/sshd_config Depending how you edited the sshd_config file it may be a good idea to run "dos2unix" against it (be sure it has chmod 600 afterwards). Do you use public key authentication? google search brought me an old still open Debian bug ticket http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=151743 which gives some pointers where to search. So do a "strace" or a "bash -x /etc/init.d/sshd start". The init script contains functions to operate with public keys and there might happen something (according to the Debian bug ticket).
