Hi,
Need to ssh into some servers. The servers are setup, that it is only
possible to ssh as user "xxx". Root is not allowed to ssh.
Now I need to ssh as root to sync some files.
Is there a way to setup ssh so that if ssh from a particular ip then
it is possible to ssh as root?
You can force certificate-based logins for root in sshd_config

PermitRootLogin without-password

NOTE!: Remember to properly configure your RSA/DSA certs in
"/root/.ssh/authorized_keys" BEFORE you restart sshd, or you might lock
yourself out of remote root (especially irksome if you have no regular
user-account to login with to repair damage).
Cheers
