I'd advise you not to run sshd(8) out of inetd(8): sshd(8) has to do quite a lot of heavy crypto stuff when it starts up, and running it out of inetd will force it to do that for every new connection. You're quite likely to end up running out of random numbers from /dev/random and seeing your ssh connections hanging.
