:Woudl the reasoning for the local network restriciton is allowing root
:login to be on by default ? Don't forget that the CD would need to
:have a root password set if you are thinking about someone tossing in
:a CD then ssh'n to the machine.

    I've considered changing the PermitRootLogin to 'without-password'
    by default.  For the CD boot we could safely set it to 'yes' by 
    default, because sshd will not accept an empty password... then a
    person would only need to set a password on the root account and they
    could login via sshd.
