If the root password is changed once again, then it's clear someone is
mocking you.
Just unplug that system already and reinstall. Upgrade to a more recent
OS if you can. Go CentOS if Fedora is too hard for you.
But more importantly learn about tcpwrappers and system security otherwise
it does not matter what effort you put into this thing. You must learn
on your own.
