You can do that , but its a very bad idea , rather use SFTP for root access

I have this same issue.

Response:   331 User root OK. Password required
Command:   PASS *****************************
Response:   530 Sorry, but I can't trust you
Error:   Critical error: Could not connect to server

But if I use SFTP then I get this.

Error:   Network error: Connection refused
Error:   Could not connect to server

Can you someone please help?

What is your ssh port? Is it 22 for using sftp?
