check logfiles ...like /var/log/daemon.log also telnet to localhost on port 22 see if it connects then drops, or if it says connection refused .or what.. and you can try to stop sshd and start it in debug mode sshd -dD to load debug and have it not fork to the background so messages are shown on the screen. nate
