description: 
Sshd package seems to creante the sshd account without password.
Msec with a high security level deletes accounts with badly configured password 
(/etc/shadow).
Hence, sshd account seemd to be deleted by msec.

In my case (mandrake 9.0 out of the box), msec deletes _weekly_ the sshd account.
I have read on the internet that for some other users, msec occasionally delete the 
sshd account at boot time.
Sshd package need a sshd account for the necessary priviledge-separation-user feature.
This feature is a security feature. Hence, sshd server won't work if msec runs with a 
high security level.
Have to correct the sshd package so that, each time it is run, /etc/rc.d/init.d/sshd 
creates the sshd account if necessary, with a password.
Alternatively, have to correct the sshd package so that the sshd account is always 
validated by msec.
