I thought of that as well, but he also stats that he has the same issue with
other users?

Or am i mistaken now?

Otherwise, that is indeed the solution to his problem , though a insecure
option,
better to use another user and "su -" to the root user , much more secure.

Cheers

Let's assume you mean root login via ssh - If so,  hack the
/etc/ssh/sshd_conf
file to allow root to login via ssh.
