sshd never gets started, or never executes? IIRC "service starts" means
that it does something magic within 30 seconds of getting executed;
otherwise it gets registered as failed to start. That doesn't mean the
program didn't run. As for invoker, I do not know what it does -- it
could run just enough slower that the other service has a chance to
start.
You may of course be completely right, the problem could be elsewhere.
Just make sure that's the case -- don't dismiss the possibility without
trying.
I probably can't help you much more as I haven't had this type of
service start-up problem, only permission issues that were fairly
trivial to solve. Try checking the multitude of permission-related
issues people have solved and reported previously on this list.
