Package: debian-edu-config
Version: 2.12.33

The Debian openssh-server disables login as root using a password by
default.  As noted in the DebianEdu documentation this must be
changed manually for the SLBackup web frontend to work:

> Note: the site will only work if you temporarily allow SSH root login on the

I'm wondering whether we should allow password-based logins from
localhost by default? E.g. through a drop in file
/etc/ssh/sshd_config.d/debia-edu.conf:

Match Address 127.0.0.1,10.0.2.2
    PermitRootLogin yes
