Ok. Eh, so I'm confused, an account with "no" password just cannot be logged into at all, I thought? (Except via methods that wouldn't use password authentication, e.g. key-based authentication as mentioned above, 'su' as root...) I wouldn't expect an ssh setting for that, I'd expect it to simply be denied :-).

It is not just root. The default user has no password in the live cd either.

I guess I am confused. Ubuntu disables root, I thought by giving no password to root. The livecd obviously should have "no password", but does that mean unset, or empty? (If unset, does unset have a different effect on root than normal accounts?)
