In either mode (inetd or standalone) I believe you can set the default
ports for each to different port numbers (e.g, sshd1 default port=22,
sshd2 default port=24). You establish these defaults in the ssh config
files and in /etc/services. Then each one runs simultaneously, looking
for connection requests on separate ports. The caveat is...remote clients
wishing to connect via the version that is *not* set to the standard
default port (22) must use the "-p" option in their connection command to
specify the port number of the host daemon, e.g., "ssh(1 or 2) -p 24
remote.host.com".
Of course, when you configure sshd2 to call on sshd1 when needed, port
specification by clients is unnecessary. Do you get a big performance hit
from sshd2 calling on sshd1? Is that the reason you do not prefer this
method?

Chris
