Let me just say that I don't have rc_net_wlan0_provide="net" in /etc/rc.conf
on any of the 8 Gentoo boxen running on this LAN atm. And "rc-status | grep
sshd" reports "sshd  [started]" on every one of them. Two are using wifi and
therefore wlan0; the other 6 are wired and use eth{0,1,2}.

What have you done so far?

Tell us about your setup. Is net.eth0 and/or net.wlan0 and/or sshd started
with your services?

rc-status | grep net
rc-status | grep sshd

http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html could be helpful so that
you'll know HOW-TO make a good post to a mailing list.

If there is something obvious about your OP that I've missed, please accept my
apologies and forgive my ignorance.
