Ok, well, I've turned on remote root access to my machine, but I've also
tried logging in as another user, same result.
when i ran sshd -ddd i got this response
debug1: Seeding random number generator
debug1: sshd version OpenSSH_2.9p2
debug1: private host key: #0 type 0 RSA1
debug3: No RSA1 key file /usr/local/etc/ssh_host_rsa_key.
debug1: read PEM private key done: type RSA
debug1: private host key: #1 type 1 RSA
debug3: No RSA1 key file /usr/local/etc/ssh_host_dsa_key.
debug1: read PEM private key done: type DSA
debug1: private host key: #2 type 2 DSA
socket: Invalid argument
debug1: Bind to port 22 on 0.0.0.0.
Cannot bind any address
The only authentication mode I have enabled right now is RSA Authentication
and Password Authentication

Could be a bunch of things. Couple that come to mind are..bad
password, your trying to log in as root ( this is generally
disabled
by default ). Look at your log files and/or turn on server side
debugging
and you will get a better idea of why. SSH generally does not
tell the user
why they were denied.
