Hi list,
after installing rkhunter on my 9.04 box I was quite upset to be
informed that 'PermitRootLogin yes' was set in sshd_conf.
The relevant portion of rkhunter.log is attached.
This system was installed from the 8.04 live CD and upgraded to 9.04
via 8.10. In never advertently touched sshd_conf.
On my other (Debian lenny) boxes 'PermitRootLogin no' is set.
Should I file a bug report?
Thanks
Siggy
