Question Help with page turning via SSH

My goal is to have responsive page turning on my Kindle 3 via a USB cable, or failing that, over wifi. If usbnetworking is used, I would also like to have a method of automating if the USB port is functioning as a network device or mass storage device.

I've done a few hours of reading posts on this forum, but with the information all spread out, I'm struggling to connect the pieces I need to make my project work.

So far using this guide, I have:
  • Installed the jailbreak
  • Installed "ScreenSavers"
  • Installed "usbnetwork"
  • used ";debugon"
  • "~usbNetwork"
  • ";debugOff"

And I can now see the network device in my USB devices list, but I don't know how to SSH into a local device. if I use the windows cmd function "ipconfig /all" I can see an IP for my device, but I can't putty into it.

So, assuming I'm going about this the right way (Please tell me if I'm not and what I should be doing differently, and why), my next steps are:
  • How do I SSH into a local device?
  • Can I turn pages with SSH, and how?
  • Can I automate the USB determining if it should be in networking or storage mode?

Please let me know if there's any important info I missed or can provide. Thanks for all the great info already!
