On some systems the direct login of the root user is prohibited as a security measure. To become root one would have to log on as normal user and only then use
or something similar ("sudo", ...) to become root. It might be that your system is configured this way. You can usually see this in the "/etc/passwd" file where user accounts not allowed to log in directly have a certain field marked. For instance (from an AIX system, notice the "!"/"*" after the users name):
The users "root" and "daemon" are not allowed to log in ("!" in the second field), whereas "bakunin" is allowed to log in ("*" in the second field).
