Under Redhat 9

Red Hat 9 was obsolete at the end of April 2004, and even the very
limited back-port support at fedoralegacy.org ended over 14 months
ago. Find a current (supported) distribution.

I want to let 192.168.0.0/24 to enter to the server through
sshd, and both hosts.allow and hosts.deny filesare set as follows.

hosts.allow
sshd: 192.168.0.0/24

man 5 hosts_access Your syntax is wrong.

host.deny
sshd:ALL

man 5 hosts_access Your syntax is wrong.

However, all computers even with ip 192.168.0.0./24 cannot enter to the
server. Why?

hosts.allow
sshd: 192.168.0.

host.deny
ALL: ALL

Also, as we know, the root account are not allowed to enter to the
server by default.
For sshd, if the root account other than the server are not allowed to
the server, how can we do?

[compton ~]$ whatis su
su (1) - run a shell with substitute user and group IDs
[compton ~]$
