manny,

the docs that i've seen have stated that the default for sshd is to allow
root login...

Was anyone aware that sshd_config default permits root login??? I
checked my config and found this too be true. i also ran rkhunter and
noticed that ssh was vunerable. I made some changes to my sshd_config
and ran rootkit again and all is well. Here's what it looks like now.
Can anyone tell me if this looks right???
