I ran into the same problem a while ago. The reason for this behaviour
is that sshd is started by launchd, so you need to set these parameters
in /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/ssh.plist. The respective parameter
names are "SockFamily" and "SockNodeName" (see "man launchd.plist"). [...]

Hi,
it looks like Leopard ignores following lines in sshd_config - e.g. setting:
  AddressFamily inet
  ListenAddress 1.2.3.4

and sshd restart gives:

If user jabrams has admin rights for a computer named Studio-C, and jabrams connects to Studio-C via AFP, jabrams will not see any public folders - only Macintosh HD, his own home folder, and any other locally mounted volume, correct?

If user jabrams has standard rights for a computer named Studio-C, and jabrams connects to Studio-C via AFP, jabrams will see all Public folders, but not any locally mounted volume, correct?
