    I would like to setup a trusted host that utilizes ssh; however, I do not
    want root to be loginable. If I set PermitRootLogin to no, then the remote
    ssh function stops as well. Does anyone know of a way to be able to do
    remote ssh's as root without allowing root to be able to login?

    I am using AIX versions 5.1, 5.2, and 5.3, and we are running ssh versions
    3.6 and 3.8.

    Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks,
