Hey Clive. I thought it was mentioned earlier before in the thread, but if not, all you need to do is edit your sshd_config file. In Debian, this is located at /etc/ssh/sshd_config, but it could be different for other distros. Open that up in a text editor and then locate the line that says PermitRootLogin yes, and change that to PermitRootLogin no. Save it, and then restart SSH. On Debian, you type in /etc/init.d/ssh restart, but on other distros it might be different. Note that you'll have to be root to edit that file and restart that service. -- Dana _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
