Description

After upgrade from 2.1.4, on at least 32 bit, SSH is running properly but sends a RST back when attempting to connect to the port it should be using. When restarting it under Status>Services, it fails with:

Jul 6 16:12:57     php: sshd: New alert found: pfSense has started creating your SSH keys. SSH Startup will be delayed. Please note that reloading the filter rules and changes will be delayed until this operation is completed.
Jul 6 16:12:58     php: sshd: New alert found: pfSense has completed creating your SSH keys. SSH is now started.
Jul 6 16:12:58     sshd[12805]: Received signal 15; terminating.
Jul 6 16:12:58     php: sshd: The command '/usr/sbin/sshd' returned exit code '255', the output was 'bad addr or host: <NULL> (hostname nor servname provided, or not known)'
Jul 6 16:12:58     php: sshd: New alert found: SSHD failed to start.

The system had SSH keys from prior to the upgrade, it shouldn't have needed to generate new keys.

What is the snapshot timestamp? I tested on Sun Jul 06 14:26:03 CDT 2014 and it's ok

About the sshd keys being regenerated, the code checks for all keys and if one of them doesn't exist it re-creates all of them. Since new types were added on 2.2 (ecdsa and ed25519), they are always missing and keys are re-generated. Maybe we should change it to re-create only missing keys.
