When writing modules, is it required that then entry point be named init.pp?

I have written a module and if I try to call the module via nodes.pp from a file named other than init.pp, I get an error that the module cannot be found. If I rename the file to init.pp, it works fine.

So, can someone clarify, is the naming of the file a requirement?

ssh.pp

class ssh::hostkeys{
Yes, the autoloader will look in init.pp for the class named "modulename" and will look for modulename::subclassname in subclassname.pp... eg:

# manifests/init.pp
 class ssh {

# manifests/hostkeys.pp
  class ssh::hostkeys {
