I was not using ssh because when I first tried it, it didn't work, even for other accounts. Now I have a decent telnet client that has an ssh option and it does work.

I also have looked at the sshd_config and there is no PermitRootLogin option. I put it in anyway and the machine still wont accept login from root remotly.

I might check out sudo and get back to you guys.

Cheers,
Jonathan.
