Check that for the options on PermitRootLogin

I really recommend to utilize "without-password" and to work with keys instead. No way to guess a password and to log in one needs a private key file. There can be multiple entries in authorized_keys (collection of public key file contents who are permitted to log in with keys). Dunno where it needs to be created for qsecofr on i, though. For ordinary users, it's in their home directory (/home/username/.ssh/).
