Root login allowed even when blocked from doing so in /etc/ssh/sshd_config

Good day.

I have a server which allows root login although explicitly blocked from doing so in the /etc/ssh/sshd_config file.

Code:# grep -iE 'root|AllowUser|AllowGroup' /etc/ssh/sshd_config
# the setting of "PermitRootLogin without-password".
#ChrootDirectory none
#AllowUsers root postgres rtp99 cmadmin cmuser
#AllowGroups root dba cmadmins cmusers m18968 nrc
#AllowUsers root postgres rtp99 cmadmin cmuser
#AllowGroups root dba cmadmins cmusers m18968 nrc
PermitRootLogin noWhere else can I try to stop root login?
