Solaris 8: root can't ssh to other systems.

Hi, The issue is that root can not ssh to a Solaris 8 server:

Quote:
root# grep PermitRootLogin /etc/ssh2/sshd2_config
PermitRootLogin yes
# PermitRootLogin nopwd

root# grep CONSOLE /etc/default/login
# If CONSOLE is set, root can only login on that device.
# CONSOLE=/dev/console
Please help. Thank you in advance!
