Ding! Thank you for playing. sshd won't do it. You need to start the 
service which checks to see whether the keys exist first. If not (you 
might consider reading /etc/init.d/sshd, btw), it does the following:

/usr/bin/ssh-keygen -t rsa1 -b 1024 -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_key -N ''


As mentioned previously, run /etc/init.d/sshd start  to get the daemon 
running. If you want it to run every time you boot, you should rc-update 
add sshd default.
