I suggest that you do not use rc.local. Rather, I suggest that you learn
how to write and use your own script in /etc/rc.d/init.d (etc/init.d on
some systems). Name that script so that sshd is started when you want
it started in the sequence of start up events.
I saw no mention of what your operating system or environment is; therefore,
I can not offer any, more detailed suggestions.
