Several things you can check: 

are you using tcpwrappers? Check your /etc/hosts.allow and
/etc/hosts.deny. If it's dropping the connection there, sshd will
never see it. 

You can try running:

sshd -d -p 8838

and run a sshd on port 8838 with debugging, then try and connect to
that one and it should give you an indication of what it's doing. 

Hope that helps,
