Hello,

	I'm having a problem, where OpenSSH 3.4 doesn't want to allow
root logins regardless of PermitRootLogin yes in /etc/ssh/sshd_config
(yes I realize it's a security risk, but my LAN isn't exposed to the
outside world :p).

     I can login without a problem via the terminal and I'm able to su
from a remote ssh window, but just not log into root directly via ssh.

Here's some log entries...

Jul 11 13:24:02 tantalum login: login on ttyv0 as root
Jul 11 13:24:02 tantalum login: ROOT LOGIN (root) ON ttyv0

[Works fine from the console]

Jul 11 13:24:52 tantalum su: mark to root on /dev/ttyp0

[Able to su remotely]

Jul 11 13:27:24 tantalum sshd[219]: Failed password for root from
192.168.1.100 port 2941 ssh2

[Yet it won't let me ssh in as root]


Very lastly, I'm running 4.6-STABLE with OpenSSH-3.4_4.

Thanks.
