whenever i start sshd -e it says dameon() failed: Sucess..
and it doesnt work

but when i start it like sshd -d it works..

does anybody know how i could get the dameon to work?

I've never used sshd with any command line options, but are there any helpful messages in /var/log/messages about ssh and why it couldn't start?

that is what i get in /var/log....

the -e just puts the output to the screen other than the log

Are you sure your ssh settings are right? Maybe something is wrong with them. -d mode processes only one connection at time, maybe it's something related with it?
