Show which processes are listening to which ports

... and btw, ssh is managed by launchd, so you will only see sshd in the list if there is a current session (somebody is currently logged in)

If you have ssh enabled you will see something like this:

launchd       1 root    9u  IPv6 0x386dc50      0t0  TCP *:ssh (LISTEN)
launchd       1 root   10u  IPv4 0x3d85e08      0t0  TCP *:ssh (LISTEN)
The ssh port has to have something listening on it if you are able to log in.

hmmm.... I have IPv6 configured to be off so why is launchd also listening on an IPv6 port? That's not good.
