I've seen this before.
If you read the openssh-2.5.1p2.README, you'll find:

This means that SYSTEM has to start SSHD if you want to use password
authentication. It's very simple, use the sshd -d to determine that your
configuration settings are correct. Once you see the "user's password"
prompt, you're probably golden. Then, set up SSHD (as described in the
readme) to start with either SRVANY or INETD under the SYSTEM context. It
will most likely work.
Good luck,
