Hack Alert: ssh from iPhone

This morning, reigning iPhone hack-king NerveGas compiled and installed sshd2 and ssh on his iPhone. So what does this mean? It shows that the first steps have been taken towards allowing the iPhone to natively ssh out. For all of you who are inclined to say "Oh ssh, my Nokia can do that... pffft", remember we're still in iPhone's early days. And, no, there isn't a GUI version yet. If you need ssh on your iPhone right now, you'll need to use a Web-based solution. Want to learn more? Head over to #iphone-shell at irc.osx86.hu.
Thanks to the whole iphone-shell gang.

I think Erica's posts are so insightful and wonderfully useful that she should start her own blog and name it:
