Error with restarting SSHD in WHM

Issue

Error with restarting SSHD in WHM. Verified the error, but SSHD appears to restart and take changes anyways even though the error is reported by WHM. Restarted SSHD from SSH does not show any errors and there is nothing in the logs about any errors with SSHD.

Fix

The issue here is that SSH is running on a non-standard port (3333). WHM/Cpanel doesn’t support non-standard ports in WHM.
