It's not a good idea to allow remote ssh root access. If anyone ever tries to log into your machine remotely using root then you'll know from the logs that someone's trying to access your systems. Always log in as a regular user then su root if necessary. Set up standard user accounts to manage trivial tasks and only use the root account when absolutely necessary.
