when I type sshd on my terminal I have the following:

Could not load host key: /etc/ssh/ssh_host_key
Could not load host key: /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key
Could not load host key: /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key
Disabling protocol version 1. Could not load host key
Disabling protocol version 2. Could not load host key

does anybody know what is wrong? How can I ativate the sshd?

If you run it as the DSL user, then you could try to run it as root instead.

Try:

sudo /etc/init.d/ssh start

Because this is the busybox ssh, not the standard one (flames expected!)

Thank you Professor. This worked great. ssh-keygen / sshd did not seem to generate the proper files for me even when I was root. Your solution generated the proper files and started the ssh server all at once.
