1. #find / -name "sshd_config"
/opt/ssh/etc/sshd_config
/opt/ssh/newconfig/opt/ssh/etc/sshd_config
/opt/ssh/src/ssh/sshd_config

# cd /opt/ssh/etc

#cat sshd_config |grep -i PermitRootLogin
PermitRootLogin yes

# vi sshd_config

2. vi the sshd_config file and change below line:
PermitRootLogin no

save and exit

3. Recheck the sshd_config file.

#cat sshd_config |grep -i PermitRootLogin
PermitRootLogin no

4. Then stop and restart SSH.

# /sbin/init.d/secsh stop

# /sbin/init.d/secsh start

You will not be able to do ssh as root now.
