    I read in the documentation that the password for root user is "ubuntu". But if I ssh with root user and type "ubuntu" as password I get a permission denied error.
    Is it possible to do that?

    You can't access to your root account over ssh. You have to enable this option. Try "udooer".

    then do "sudo su" and "passwd" to set a root-password.

    > nano /etc/ssh/sshd_config

    change "PermitRootLogin no" to "yes" and save

    > service ssh restart

    now you can login into your root account

    Is this a permanent change? Or do I have to do it any time I want to access as root user?

    Permanent. Only type root as user and your password
