Simply says the /etc/init.d/sshd script is missing.

I understand Debian Linux a bit and am capable of installing sshd but don't want to mess up anything special about the way DA did or didn't do the intall, please help.

Thanks
 
If you "apt-get --reinstall install openssh-server" it won't mess up anything and give you the init.d script back.
Also check that /etc/init.d/ssh isn't already there, if it is just do "ln -s /etc/init.d/ssh /etc/init.d/sshd" and "update-rc.d sshd defaults".
