SSH access denied because of bad $HOME permissions

[Delius, Felix von]

Hi,

is there an option to disable the permission check for the target users
$HOME directory?

What I want to do is to login with RSA-Authentication as root where root's
homedir is / with the following permissions:

        drwxrwxr-x  26 root     sys         1024 Feb 10 10:12 /

all I get is the following message:

Feb 10 12:59:01 sshd[13573]: log: Rsa authentication refused for root: bad
modes for /

(I'm using ssh-1.3.3).

Thanks!

Felix
