From what you are saying I can understand that I should reinstall the
server, even if he is not successfully login in again?
If the root password is changed once again, then it's clear someone is
mocking you.
Just unplug that system already and reinstall. Upgrade to a more recent
OS if you can. Go CentOS if Fedora is too hard for you.
But more importantly learn about tcpwrappers and system security
otherwise
it does not matter what effort you put into this thing. You must learn
on your own.
I was not clear enough,
I did changed the password for root and I blocked remote root login.
Now he is still trying to login with root, but unsuccessfully. So probably
he did not finished his job.
