Remote root logins are disabled by default. This is probably the best
way to leave things. You can log in as a user then su to root, use sudo
or whatever.
If you do want to modify this, edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config and alter the line:
#PermitRootLogin no
to read:
PermitRootLogin yes
then restart sshd
PWR.
