during the upgrade /etc/ssh/sshd_config had the wrong path in this line: HostKey /etc/ssh-nonfree/ssh_host_key actually now that i think about it, i think it was when i reverted back to ssh-nonfree ... it was still pointing to /etc/ssh instead of /etc/ssh-nonfree ... so ignore me :) i thought there was something else little as well going on but whatever it was because very obvious when i killed ssh (/etc/init.d/ssh stop) and tried to start it manuall with the -d switch (/usr/sbin/sshd -d). adam.
