Furthermore, SSHd is set auto-start setting by default, so it's possible to login without chainging ant settings. But it had better to change for security settings like follows.
[root@dlp ~]#
vi /etc/ssh/sshd_config
# line 39: uncomment and change ( prohibit root login remotely )

PermitRootLogin
no
# line 59: uncomment

PermitEmptyPasswords no
PasswordAuthentication yes
[root@dlp ~]#
/etc/rc.d/init.d/sshd restart
