How to enable root remote login in centos system

By default, CentOS does not allow root remote login, so logging in using terminal tools such as SFTP will be denied. Remote access can be enabled through simple configuration.

The specific method is as follows:

1. Check whether ssh is installed

By default, ssh has been installed after the CentOS installation is completed. You can check it through the following command:

$ ssh -V

$ vi /etc/ssh/sshd_config

Change the #PermitRootLogin yes line in front of the configuration Remove the # sign.

3. Restart the ssh service

$ service sshd restart

Local terminal command line to log in to the remote server:

ssh root:188.188.188.188
