Hi Ben,
You didn't mention how you tried to execute sshd, so I'll try to cover
all the bases (that's a baseball expression for those that don't know).
1st if you are in the same directory as sshd you need to execute it like
this as root:
# ./sshd
There are security reasons for this which I won't go into. If this
method doesn't work then the permissions of the file must be wrong. Do
this:
# cd /usr/local/sbin
# chmod 744 sshd
If it doesn't work now then sshd must not be a real program. Try
recompiling and installing again.
