Can't login as a root via SSH!

[williamyun7]

hey guys, how are you~:)

I know it's not recommended accessing Root via SSH but I am just testing for
some reasons.

I have edited two configurations like below and restarted sshd service, and
even restarted the computer but I still cannot login as a root via SSH with
getting an error message (keyboard-interactive authentication with ssh2
server failed)

# This is the ssh client system-wide configuration file.  See
# ssh_config(5) for more information.  This file provides defaults for
# users, and the values can be changed in per-user configuration files
# or on the command line.

# Configuration data is parsed as follows:
#  1. command line options
#  2. user-specific file
#  3. system-wide file
# Any configuration value is only changed the first time it is set.
# Thus, host-specific definitions should be at the beginning of the
# configuration file, and defaults at the end.

# Site-wide defaults for some commonly used options.  For a comprehensive
# list of available options, their meanings and defaults, please see the
# ssh_config(5) man page.
