The 'ssh' package is a metapackage and contains nothing other than the dependencies. Purging it and reinstalling it won't do what you hope. What you are suggesting would need to purge and reinstall the openssh-client and openssh-server packages. (Due to popular demand the ssh package in Sarge was split into two packages, openssh-client and openssh-server, for Etch.) I agree that is probably a good route. Becuase it looks to me like a post installation misconfiguration and that would be the most direct way to get everything clean again.
