I jailbroke the ipod touch and then upgraded to 1.1.2 and now I have a program called SSH on my ipod touch. I heard it allows you to download other programs, but I have no idea how to use it. Can someone help me out.

You can install themes with SFTP after enabling the SSH.

Check here --> The Future is Here ...: [HOW TO] - Install Themes


Check the IP address of the iPhone Touch.

Username: root
Password: alpine

Make sure you change the default password or else others will be able to login to your iPhone when on public wi-fi. You may also want to turn SSH off when not in use as it may use up battery life listening for new connections.

If you are going to leave SSH active, change your root password. If you can get a terminal window on your iPod/iPhone, you can do this by typing:

sudo passwd root

or

sudo passwd
