ssh: Permission denied

[Donald Tripp]

If you definitely need root login, you're best option is to set up  
access privileges to allow only root from specific IP addresses. Or,  
if you have two NICs setup two ssh daemons to handle regular users  
and root users from specific ips using iptables and sshd_config.
