How do I disallow ssh login by root?
 

Hi all,

I have a Redhat 9 server, and I'm currently able to ssh to it using root credentials.

I edited sshd.conf and changed the following:

# Authentication:

#LoginGraceTime 120
PermitRootLogin no
#StrictModes yes

And restarted the service, but I'm still able to ssh in as root. Is there something else I need to do?

Thanks!

Got it. :) Had to change the "Protocol 2,1" line to "Protocol 2" only.
