Would someone be so kind as to tell me which files, and what lines are needed to not allow user "root" to ssh directly to my server? I have tried both /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny, but either I am not putting th correct line in, or there are additional files which I am not aware of. (never proclaimed to be great at this) Thanking you in advance.
