No. Commenting everything out will just make it use default values for
everything. What you want is to stop the daemon, and disable it. Craig's
suggestions are as good as mine would be, since I'm not a debian person
either.
Any debian people out there know the one tru way to disable a daemon?
You might try looking for /etc/rcX.d/SYYsshd, where "X" is the runlevel
you start up in, and "YY" is any two digit number. If you find that
(symlink), rename SYYsshd to KYYsshd (from start to kill). There's
probably an admin widget to do this for you, but I don't know where to
find it for you.
