How to SSH into your iPod Touch

A relatively simple way to access files on your iPod Touch is to use SSH. Enabling an SSH service on your iPod Touch is more likely to appeal to the geeks like me rather than mainstream users. The process involves setting up OpenSSH on the iPod Touch, and then using a file transfer client with an SSH client facility (like CyberDuck on the Mac or WinSCP on Windows).
The guide specifically tackles using SSH from a Mac, but those with enough knowledge of what’s going on can easily adapt the information to work on any other operating system with an SSH client. I wonder how long it will be before someone starts running a webserver from an iPod Touch!
