How to make sshd start automatically at boot-up?

[kitepilot at kitepilot.com]

There are essentially 2 ways to accomplish this:
1.- The BSD way
2.- The System-V way. 

If you have a directory
/etc/init.d
and/or
/etc/rcd./init.d
chances are you have a System-V in front of you (most likely, unless you are 
running some BSD flavor or Slackware) 

For a System-V fix all you need is:
"A symlink pointing to your daemon start-up script in every level you want 
it running"
The above is a fairly dense statement, but if you:
ln -s ../init.d/ssh /etc/rc3.d/S16ssh
(adjust for your path)
It will fire up SSH on init 3.
Not complete, but it fixes your immediate problem.
YMMV...
