I did some test with SSL. But it din't work. What I try is to Login the root without a password from a secified host. But I was Not aware that this will affect the whole system for every user. With only root I can login. How can I reset the settings?

Did you check /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow for correct user account entries? I suspect you have modified the /etc/ssh/sshd_config file in some way. Or did you create any ssh client configuration for the user? Can you ssh login with a different user?
