disabling direct root login and adding the regular user is also a good security measure.

If VPS: it's worthless unless you are accessing SSH from risky node.
If dedi: you don't need your root SSH access always thus regular better.

With simple VPS SSH over SSH again SSH it's pathetic.
Anonymous Root SSH port is also a good security measure

very good tut, most people new to VPS stuff wouldn't even think of it, so it will help them to have a bit more basic security atleast.
