Comment (by siarzhuk):

 Replying to [comment:2 bbjimmy]:
 > It is generally considered to be a security risk to have an unrequested
 network service open by default. Is there a valid reason to have an ssh
 daemon running on a desktop computer that has just one user?

 Have you already hacked freshly installed Haiku in this way? ;-) It is
 development platform and developers sometime need any available way to
 access systems with locked UI or dead graphics hardware to find the source
 of problem. Disabling sshd now dosen't help to improve security but make
 more problems in developing Haiku.
