I have added a password for root login, and in sshd_config changed to PermitRootLogin yes. I can login as root locally with the correct password, but WinSCP says ' access denied '. The auth.log shows: sshd[1643]: Pam_Unix(sshd:auth): authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 TTY=ssh ruser= rhost=192.168.39.121 user=root Len WB2HKK
Did you restart the sshd service? Corey n3fe Sent from my iPhone

Len, When you say you can login locally do you mean via ssh or on the keyboard and screen? Please show us your complete PermitRootLogin line from sshd_config. Steve N4IRS On 04/21/2018 11:36 AM, lengriff@optimum.net wrote:
