root PW isn't setted

So do following:
1. type sudo passwd root
2. set password for root (2x times!)
3. edit file sudo nano /etc/ssh/sshd_config
```
	#PermitRootLogin without-password
	PermitRootLogin yes
```
1. reboot or type sudo service sshd resart
2. You have root SSH enabeld and setted root PW
