  Are you trying to ssh into the box as the root user?

I do not ssh into remote boxes as root; I use ssh to root only within the box.

If so, remember Debian's ssh configuration stops root from logging in.

In my Debian 9 and 11 boxes I see in /etc/ssh/sshd_config "PermitRootLogin yes" by default, and by default local and remote root login is possible.
