Right. I can see what your saying. It's a bit annoying that KPackage
throws an error instead of providing an informational response, eg,
"Access denied. Configure sshd on this machine to allow root access
via
SSH protocol".

Look at the sshd.conf file and comment out the line preventing root
ssh access.

I can see /etc/ssh/sshd_config. I set PermitRootLogin to 'yes' and
uncommented it.

Can you 'ssh root@localhost' from a console?

No, I can't

If not, have you got 'sshd:
LOCAL' in '/etc/hosts.allow'?

The first line of /etc/hosts.allow says:

ALL : ALL : allow

that should cover it shouldn't it?
