My guess is that you started sshd using "sshd" (either from within
/usr/local/sbin or with it in your PATH).

Have you tried starting it with "/usr/local/sbin/sshd" ?
Personally, I use the AIX system resource controller to manage sshd. This
has the advantage of automatically restarting it if it ever falls over.
The following command sets it up:
mkssys -s sshd -u 0 -p /usr/local/sbin/sshd -G tcpip -R -S -n 15 -f 9
Now sshd can be controlled with:
startsrc -s sshd
stopsrc -s sshd
Trying to stop the daemon any other way (e.g. kill -9) means it gets
automatically restarted by SRC. You kick it off on startup in
/etc/rc.tcpip in the same way as inetd, etc...
Hope this is useful!
