if you installed openssh port, i think the preferred way is to start it 
like this:

# disable built in SSH and enable SSH_portable
sshd_enable="NO"
openssh_enable="YES"

that way the built in sshd is not used (startup script in /etc/rc.d) and 
the openssh version is used (from /usr/local/etc/rc.d)
