It seems that a freshly installed tumbleweed is does allow password root login:
PermitRootLogin yes
As upstream has changed the default AFAIK this must have been our decision to patch this to the old behaviour.
Should we reject this ticket?
If a test module is already changing this then just make sure the situation is checked before the change, could very well be that pdostal already included this check in the sshd test module
I manually installed a TW on a physical machine and it had "PermitRootLogin yes" set.
So it looks like it is the distro's default.
Sounds bad, I suggest to crosscheck if this is intended, e.g. IRC or bug
- Status changed from In Progress to Rejected
So it looks as if it was intended.
