Java SSH
Monday, February 28th, 2005I was trying to get a Java SSH client on my phone. It didn’t work, the connection kept dropping to the site as I was trying to download to my phone. The site is here. It’s GPLed. I hope you have more luck than I did

Step two, Debian Sarge net install CD. I think I’ll go for the 2.6 kernel.
Next step. Partitioning. 5GB [...]
