Re: can't ssh into box anymore



Hi!

Did you try to login as root?

This is forbidden by default. You should not change this, but make sure
you can su to root after logging in as known user.

Check your /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny files if there is any
restriction for the client you want to log in from.
