Here's what worked for me:

Ran ssh-host-config as administrator and took defaults, except
 priviledge separation => no
 install as a service => no

Then, I chown'd /var/empty to Administrator and was able to run
"sshd -p 8100" and ssh into the box.

More importantly, other users were able to start their own sshds, on
different ports, and also ssh into the box.
