As you have already realized, it is generally not safe to allow ssh
access for root.  In fact, Fedora by default does not allow root to have
ssh access.

Ask yourself why is is not safe to ssh to root?


Then why have I had to manually disable it on every Fedora install I
have done?

Yep, root access is enabled by default.
