Further info on this. The problem appears to be with the user account that was being used for testing.
The user account that was created with Anaconda permits ssh login. The problem account is using a directory that was leftover from the Fedora 30 install.

This resolves the problem with root login, thanks.
The problem with non-root login getting Permission denied remains.

Suggestions would be appreciated.
I believe the default sshd_config in fedora 32 has been changed to say "PermitRootLogin: prohibit-password", so you can only get it with public keys. If you change it to "yes" and restart sshd, it will allow password login again.
