The OpenSSH daemon could be implemented something like: Daemon starts up, reads the config file, initialises the ssh_transport library with parameters such as acceptable auth methods, location of keyauth files, port-forwarding allowed, etc, and then the library starts listening for connections. When a connection is received, the library handles all the negotiation of algorithms and authentication methods, and once an acceptable authentication occurs, the file descriptor (fd) is returned to the dae...

I don't need root access at all, the server isn't runnin...
