This is a longstanding bug. The sshd package does not create the needed
ssh keys.

to generate an old (v1) rsa key:

ssh-keygen -N '' -C '' -t rsa1 -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_key

to generate a new (v2) rsa key:

ssh-keygen -N '' -C '' -t rsa -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key

to generate a new (v2) des key:

ssh-keygen -N '' -C '' -t des -f /etc/ssh_host_des_key

NOTE: this takes ages on the iPaq.

Than sshd should start up and allow one of/all of rsa1, rsa or des
keyexchange.
