Default SSH from iTouch?

Hi, I'm a new member, and I couldn't find a forum to put this in, so I guess I can put it here.

I was wondering if a mini CuteFTP type program was possible for the ipod touch. It would be kind of useful to SSH/SFTP into my friend's touch, and possibly transfer apps/roms/files through wifi on the same network.

I have 2 Apps, called DropCopy and SendFile, and I have no idea how they work either.

There is a way I know on how to do this, but it is not too user-friendly... because 1) it requires linux knowledge on the "scp" command, and 2) it requires you typing semi-long linux commands on the tiny keyboard.

1) Install "OpenSSH" package (Search result, valid for 2 hours max, if deleted by the time you get around to it, please search again).
2) Install "Term-vt100" package (Search result, valid for 2 hours max, if deleted by the time you get around to it, please search again).
3) In Term-vt100, use the "scp" command to copy the file(s) back and forth

Manual of scp can be found here.

*Note: your friend should also have OpenSSH installed; and you will need to know his/her password.

I think typing all that on the keypad is much too cumbersome for basic daily use. However, those two programs I mentioned above can supposedly let you transfer files between iPods. Do you happen to know anything about them?

I've heard good things about SendFile, and havn't heard a whole lot about DropCopy. Since most of my friends locally are poor post secondary students like myself, they don't have iPod Touch / iPhone for me to try to use those apps on, either. As such, I cannot comment much about those apps personally. Perhaps someone else in the community have experience with those apps and can provide some more info about them
