Hi all,

I have just looked around but I have not found any post about SSH/SCP-ing INTO the enTourage eDGe (EE), so I am leaving this mini "how to" here. My apologies if this post is naive or it re-states something said somewhere else.

1) Download and install DroidSSHd on your EE. Get it from http://code.google.com/p/droidsshd/downloads/list

2) Start DroidSSHd on your EE. You might want to change password and/or the port. In what follows, I assume my EE has IP 192.168.0.16 and that it is listening to port 2222.

SSH-ing into the EE from a linux shell:

Code:

$ ssh -p 2222 192.168.0.16

(and type the password you set on your EE)

SCP-ing file foo.txt into the /mnt/sdcard/download/ folder of the EE:

Code:

$ scp -o Port=2222  foo.txt  192.168.0.16:/mnt/sdcard/download/

(and type the password you set on your EE)

Please note that "-P2222" SCP option does not work, you must provide the port number with the "-o" switch, as part of the SSH connection option, otherwise the default SSH port (22) is used to establish the connection and DroidSSHd does not seem able to listen to that port.
