I had the same thought right after i sent my first email.

I run older code, so I logged on as root to poke around.
I do not have a daemon running. When I ssh to my box, inetd
launched the service for me.

I know this because ps auxwww| grep ssh only shows my one
sshd process that I am currently using.

Are you sure that the process you see is a listening daemon?

If it is, it would try to use port 22 and throw off a mesg
that you have shown us.
