I agree with both comments but recommend that you disable the ability
of
root to login at all. Users can always su to root.
That has the severe downside, that if someone got on the system as an
unprivileged user he could sniff while you are su'ing to root, which is
not successful if you ssh in as root using publick key authentication
rather than password authentication.
