Mike-

Thanks again for the help. I figured out what I did wrong. When I edited the SSHD_CONFIG file, me being a newbe forgot to take the # off the front of the line so it was commented out. Fixed it and I now have SSH access on a different port than default.

one step at a time...

Thanks!

Not sure why you are having issues
Root has it's own password SSH or not.(user)
Perhaps the service has not been enabled which would have happened if
you restarted ssh and not rebooted.

Rebooting will not start a service that has not been told to start in
the first place.
Restarting a service will start the service if not already started, and
restart it if already running.

systemctl enable ssh
systemctl restart ssh
