Please don't top post.

The CD is fairly old, but should work.  I don't recall what users are 
enabled, but sshd by default does not allow login by root.

Do you have access to the system after it has booted.  If you have a 
console available, edit /etc/sshd_config and make sure you have

PermitRootLogin yes

Then run /etc/rc.d/init.d/sshd restart

One of the problems with a boot CD is that you will need to do that 
every time you boot.  What would be better is to just do a minimal 
install of a distro like Ubuntu or Fedora and use that.  You do have to 
make sure you have the host requirements and update the distro install 
to make those complete.
