The command I was using to connect to the VM is "ssh -vv NetBSD-VM". I'll make another user account when I get home later and try again.<br>

I meant: please provide the exact command you ran to<br>
connect to the system via ssh from outside your VM.<br>

That's not the right place. /etc/ssh/ssh_config<br>
applies to the 'ssh' client side, i.e., when you run<br>
'ssh' on the VM. You'd need to change the setting in<br>
/etc/ssh/sshd_config, but the _right_ way to solve<br>
this is to add another user and log in as that user;<br>
you do not need nor want to run everything as root.<br>
<br>
In fact, in this class the requirement is that you do<br>
not run your code as root, as root has special<br>
privileges and your code will behave differently at<br>
times than if it's executed by a normal user.<br>
