Cannot PuTTY to centos with ssh

New clean server CentOS 5.5 x64

I installed SSHD following the instructions here. http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/centos-ssh/

When I try to login to the server with PuTTY however I get the output below.

SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_4.3
                   [cursor here]

Cursor stuck out to the side. If I hit enter the remote closes the connection?

Am expecting to get

Login as:[cursor]

Please configure your PuTTY session to use Port 22 for SSH connections.

(it sounds like you have Port 23 set at the moment)
