Hvae you checked /etc/ssh/sshd_config or /etc/sshd_config depending on what ssh you're using? You may have the line: PermitRootLogin no instead of being set to yes. On Thu, 16 Nov 2000 juergen.braukmann@ruhr-west.de wrote:

This makes me think... There is a rc.config parameter to disable/enable remote root logins. I do not know wether that affects ssh as well and wether it is "updated" to "no" with the securety fix. Any other user to try to login but root??? (probably a superflucious question for a machine like this)
