That's true. If the security level is set to the highest possible level, you cannot login directly as root, either on the console or via ssh. Take a look at /etc/securetty. If it has 0 entries in it, you'll not be able to login directly as root. You should have listings for tty1 - 6 on separate lines to enable direct root login on the console.
