My home Debian box has only ssh in init.d, and I've continued to use that
command on our Raq, though I've always thought that calling it sshd was more
intuitive and less likely to cause this sshd_config/ssh_config confusion
that keeps happening.

Now, looking more closely, I see our Raq's got both ssh and sshd scripts in
init.d, the sshd script being more recent, the ssh script being dated March
2001, same as my Debian box.

Both are running OpenSSH 3.4pl1, so I don't know what's caused one to have
an sshd and not the other. Perhaps some Debian thing rather than a Cobalt
thing? Makes a change :o)

Cheers
